Gene ID: 2623, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: GF1; GF-1; NFE1; XLTT; ERYF1; NF-E1; XLANP; XLTDA; GATA-1; HAEADA

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which belongs to the GATA family of transcription factors. The protein plays an important role in erythroid development by regulating the switch of fetal hemoglobin to adult hemoglobin. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked dyserythropoietic anemia and thrombocytopenia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
