Gene: IER5

Alternate names for this Gene: SBBI48

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is similar to other immediate early response proteins. In the mouse, a similar gene may play an important role in mediating the cellular response to mitogenic signals. Studies in rats found the expression of a similar gene to be increased after waking and sleep deprivation.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1q25.3

Description of this Gene: immediate early response 5

Type of Gene: protein-coding
