Gene information for MYF6 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4618
Official gene symbolMYF6
Full namemyogenic factor 6 (herculin)
Aliases,MRF4,bHLHc4,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a probable basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) DNA binding protein involved in muscle differentiation. The encoded protein likely acts as a heterodimer with another bHLH protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (ADCNM). [provided by RefSeq]
