Gene: FOXJ1

Alternate names for this Gene: CILD43|FKHL13|HFH-4|HFH4

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors. Similar genes in zebrafish and mouse have been shown to regulate the transcription of genes that control the production of motile cilia. The mouse ortholog also functions in the determination of left-right asymmetry. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and allergic rhinitis.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 17

Location in Chromosome : 17q25.1

Description of this Gene: forkhead box J1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
