MEN1 wt Allele

Preferred Label : MEN1 wt Allele;

NCIt synonyms : MEAI; MEN I; MEA I; SCG2; Menin 1 wt Allele; Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 1 Gene; Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia I Gene;

NCIt definition : Human MEN wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11q13 and is approximately 8 kb in length. This allele, which encodes menin protein, plays a role in repression of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of tumor types.;

NCIt note : The MEN1 gene product is mutated in multiple endocrine neoplasia 1, isolated hyperparathyroid tumor, gastrinoma, insulinoma, and bronchial carcinoid tumors. This gene product also interacts with the transcription factor JUND (GeneCards).;

GenBank Accession Number : U93236;
