Gene: PELP1

Alternate names for this Gene: MNAR|P160

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a transcription factor which coactivates transcription of estrogen receptor responsive genes and corepresses genes activated by other hormone receptors or sequence-specific transcription factors. Expression of this gene is regulated by both members of the estrogen receptor family. This gene may be involved in the progression of several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 17

Location in Chromosome : 17p13.2

Description of this Gene: proline, glutamate and leucine rich protein 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
