Gene: FOXA3
Alternate names for this Gene: FKHH3|HNF3G|TCF3G
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the forkhead class of DNA-binding proteins. These hepatocyte nuclear factors are transcriptional activators for liver-specific transcripts such as albumin and transthyretin, and they also interact with chromatin. Similar family members in mice have roles in the regulation of metabolism and in the differentiation of the pancreas and liver. The crystal structure of a similar protein in rat has been resolved.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 19
Location in Chromosome : 19q13.32
Description of this Gene: forkhead box A3
Type of Gene: protein-coding
