Gene: MED4

Alternate names for this Gene: ARC36|DRIP36|HSPC126|TRAP36|VDRIP

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a component of the Mediator complex. The Mediator complex interacts with DNA-binding gene-specific transcription factors to modulate transcription by RNA polymerase II. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 13

Location in Chromosome : 13q14.2

Description of this Gene: mediator complex subunit 4

Type of Gene: protein-coding
