Gene: PQBP1

Alternate names for this Gene: MRX2|MRX55|MRXS3|MRXS8|NPW38|RENS1|SHS

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a nuclear polyglutamine-binding protein that is involved with transcription activation. The encoded protein contains a WW domain. Mutations in this gene have been found in patients with Renpenning syndrome 1 and other syndromes with X-linked cognitive disability. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: X

Location in Chromosome : Xp11.23

Description of this Gene: polyglutamine binding protein 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
