Gene: FIGNL1

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the AAA ATPase family of proteins. The encoded protein is recruited to sites of DNA damage where it plays a role in DNA double-strand break repair via homologous recombination. This protein has also been shown to localize to the centrosome and inhibit ciliogenesis, and may regulate the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7p12.2

Description of this Gene: fidgetin like 1
