Gene ID: 79977, updated on 6-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BOM; ECTDS; PPCD4; DFNA28; TFCP2L3

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that can act as a homodimer or as a heterodimer with either GRHL1 or GRHL3. Defects in this gene are a cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 28 (DFNA28).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
