Gene: NGF

Alternate names for this Gene: Beta-NGF|HSAN5|NGFB

Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the NGF-beta family and encodes a secreted protein which homodimerizes and is incorporated into a larger complex. This protein has nerve growth stimulating activity and the complex is involved in the regulation of growth and the differentiation of sympathetic and certain sensory neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, type 5 (HSAN5), and dysregulation of this gene's expression is associated with allergic rhinitis.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p13.2

Description of this Gene: nerve growth factor

Type of Gene: protein-coding
