Gene: RBFOX1 
Alternate names for this Gene:  2BP1|A2BP1|FOX-1|FOX1|HRNBP1
Gene Summary: The Fox-1 family of RNA-binding proteins is evolutionarily conserved, and regulates tissue-specific alternative splicing in metazoa. Fox-1 recognizes a (U)GCAUG stretch in regulated exons or in flanking introns. The protein binds to the C-terminus of ataxin-2 and may contribute to the restricted pathology of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2). Ataxin-2 is the product of the SCA2 gene which causes familial neurodegenerative diseases. Fox-1 and ataxin-2 are both localized in the trans-Golgi network. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. 
Gene is located in Chromosome:  16
Location in Chromosome :  16p13.3
Description of this Gene:  RNA binding fox-1 homolog 1
Type of Gene:  protein-coding
