Gene: MED15

Alternate names for this Gene: ARC105|CAG7A|CTG7A|PCQAP|TIG-1|TIG1|TNRC7

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the multiprotein complexes PC2 and ARC/DRIP and may function as a transcriptional coactivator in RNA polymerase II transcription. This gene contains stretches of trinucleotide repeats and is located in the chromosome 22 region which is deleted in DiGeorge syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q11.21

Description of this Gene: mediator complex subunit 15

Type of Gene: protein-coding
