NCIt definition : Human FOXO3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 6q21 and is approximately
121 kb in length. This allele, which encodes forkhead box protein O3A, plays a role
in the activation of both transcription by RNA polymerase II and apoptosis that is
induced by oxidative stress.;
NCIt note : The FOXO3A gene product recognizes and binds to the DNA sequence 5'-[AG]TAAA[TC]A-3'
(GeneCards).;
