Gene: SEPTIN3

Alternate names for this Gene: SEP3|SEPT3|bK250D10.3

Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the septin family of GTPases. Members of this family are required for cytokinesis. Expression is upregulated by retinoic acid in a human teratocarcinoma cell line. The specific function of this gene has not been determined. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.2

Description of this Gene: septin 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
