Gene: CCNQ

Alternate names for this Gene: CycM|FAM58A

Gene Summary: Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause an X-linked dominant STAR syndrome that typically manifests syndactyly, telecanthus and anogenital and renal malformations. The protein encoded by this gene contains a cyclin-box-fold domain which suggests it may have a role in controlling nuclear cell division cycles. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: X

Location in Chromosome : Xq28

Description of this Gene: cyclin Q

Type of Gene: protein-coding
