NCIt synonyms : DBCCR1L; BMP/Retinoic Acid Inducible Neural Specific 3 wt Allele; FAM5C; DBCCR1L1; Family With Sequence Similarity 5, Member C Gene;
NCIt definition : Human BRINP3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1q31.1 and is approximately
381 kb in length. This allele, which encodes BMP/retinoic acid-inducible neural-specific
protein 3, is involved in neuronal differentiation and cell cycle arrest. Aberrant
expression of the gene may be associated with pituitary tumors, tongue squamous cell
carcinomas, ulcerative colitis, and peri-implantitis. Hypermethylation of the gene
may be a marker for gastric cancer.;
NCIt note : Mutation of the BRINP3 gene may be associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
