Gene: QSOX1

Alternate names for this Gene: Q6|QSCN6

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that contains domains of thioredoxin and ERV1, members of two long-standing gene families. The gene expression is induced as fibroblasts begin to exit the proliferative cycle and enter quiescence, suggesting that this gene plays an important role in growth regulation. Two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1q25.2

Description of this Gene: quiescin sulfhydryl oxidase 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
