RECQL4

RecQ protein-like 4

On chromosome: 8q24.3
Known also as: RECQ4;


NCBI Gene ID: 9401
NCBI Ensembl Id: ENSG00000160957
MIM Id: (from NCBI OMIM database) 603780
Species: Homo sapiens

The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA helicase that belongs to the RecQ helicase family. DNA helicases unwind double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNAs and may modulate chromosome segregation. This gene is predominantly expressed in thymus and testis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Rothmund-Thomson, RAPADILINO and Baller-Gerold syndromes. [provided by RefSeq]
