Gene: GATAD2B
Alternate names for this Gene: GANDS|MRD18|P66beta|p68
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a zinc finger protein transcriptional repressor. The encoded protein is part of the methyl-CpG-binding protein-1 complex, which represses gene expression by deacetylating methylated nucleosomes. Mutations in this gene are linked to intellectual disability and dysmorphic features associated with cognitive disability.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 1
Location in Chromosome : 1q21.3
Description of this Gene: GATA zinc finger domain containing 2B
Type of Gene: protein-coding
