Gene information for EDF1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8721
Official gene symbolEDF1
Full nameendothelial differentiation-related factor 1
Aliases,EDF-1,MBF1,MGC9058,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that may regulate endothelial cell differentiation. It has been postulated that the protein functions as a bridging molecule that interconnects regulatory proteins and the basal transcriptional machinery, thereby modulating the transcription of genes involved in endothelial differentiation. This protein has also been found to act as a transcriptional coactivator by interconnecting the general transcription factor TATA element-binding protein (TBP) and gene-specific activators. Two alternatively spliced transcripts which encode distinct proteins have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
