Also known as: Taz; 2310058J06Rik; 2610021I22Rik
Summary: This gene encodes a binding protein of the 14-3-3 family of proteins that regulate cell cycle progression, differentiation and apoptosis. The encoded protein is a transcriptional co-activator that binds to the PPXY motif present on transcription factors. The gene product contains a WW domain and, in the C-terminus, a conserved PDZ-binding motif. This gene is distinct from the gene encoding tafazzin. Both genes share the gene symbol Taz. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
Annotation information: Note: Wwtr1 (Gene ID: 97064) and Taz (Gene ID: 66826) loci share the Taz symbol/alias in common. [08 Feb 2019]
Expression: Broad expression in bladder adult (RPKM 25.1), lung adult (RPKM 24.7) and 26 other tissues See more

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.
