Description of this Gene:

Type of Gene:

Gene: AHR

Alternate names for this Gene: RP85|bHLHe76

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a ligand-activated helix-loop-helix transcription factor involved in the regulation of biological responses to planar aromatic hydrocarbons. This receptor has been shown to regulate xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome P450. Before ligand binding, the encoded protein is sequestered in the cytoplasm; upon ligand binding, this protein moves to the nucleus and stimulates transcription of target genes.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7p21.1

Description of this Gene: aryl hydrocarbon receptor

Type of Gene: protein-coding
