FREM1 FRAS1 related extracellular matrix 1

Gene ID: 158326, updated on 10-Dec-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BNAR; MOTA; TILRR; TRIGNO2; C9orf143; C9orf145; C9orf154

Summary

This gene encodes a basement membrane protein that may play a role in craniofacial and renal development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with bifid nose with or without anorectal and renal anomalies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. PubMed ID 19940113 describes one such variant that initiates transcription within a distinct, internal exon; the resulting shorter isoform (named Toll-like/interleukin-1 receptor regulator, TILRR) is suggested to be a co-receptor of the interleukin 1 receptor family and may regulate receptor function and Toll-like receptor/interleukin 1 receptor signal transduction, contributing to the control of inflammatory response activation.
