Gene: AUTS2
Alternate names for this Gene: FBRSL2|MRD26
Gene Summary: This gene has been implicated in neurodevelopment and as a candidate gene for numerous neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disability, and developmental delay. Mutations in this gene have also been associated with non-neurological disorders, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, aging of the skin, early-onset androgenetic alopecia, and certain cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 7
Location in Chromosome : 7q11.22
Description of this Gene: activator of transcription and developmental regulator AUTS2
Type of Gene: protein-coding
