NFE2L1 NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 1 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: NFE2L1provided by HGNC
Official Full Name: NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 1provided by HGNC
Primary source: HGNC:HGNC:7781

Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: NRF1; NRF-1; TCF11; LCR-F1
Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is involved in globin gene expression in erythrocytes. Confusion has occurred in bibliographic databases due to the shared symbol of NRF1 for this gene, NFE2L1, and for "nuclear respiratory factor 1" which has an official symbol of NRF1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Annotation information: Note: NRF1 (Gene ID: 4899) and NFE2L1 (Gene ID: 4779) share the NRF1 symbol/alias in common. NRF1 is a widely used alternative name for nuclear factor, erythroid 2 like 1 (NFE2L1), which can be confused with the official symbol for nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1). [05 Jul 2018]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
