Gene: MEX3C

Alternate names for this Gene: BM-013|MEX-3C|RKHD2|RNF194

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins with two K homology (KH) RNA-binding domains and a C-terminal RING-finger domain. The protein interacts with mRNA via the KH domains, and the protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Polymorphisms in this gene may contribute to hypertension.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 18

Location in Chromosome : 18q21.2

Description of this Gene: mex-3 RNA binding family member C
