Human Gene NEUROG3 (ENST00000242462.5) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens neurogenin 3 (NEUROG3), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_020999) RefSeq Summary (NM_020999): The protein encoded by this gene is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor involved in neurogenesis. The encoded protein likely acts as a heterodimer with another bHLH protein. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital malabsorptive diarrhea 4 (DIAR4).[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000242462.5 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000122859.5 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr10:69,571,698-69,573,422 Size: 1,725 Total Exon Count: 2 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr10:69,572,399-69,573,043 Size: 645 Coding Exon Count: 1
ID:NGN3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Neurogenin-3; Short=NGN-3; AltName: Full=Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 7; Short=bHLHa7; AltName: Full=Protein atonal homolog 5; FUNCTION: Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Together with NKX2- 2, initiates transcriptional activation of NEUROD1. Involved in neurogenesis. Also required for the specification of a common precursor of the 4 pancreatic endocrine cell types (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Potential). DISEASE: Defects in NEUROG3 are the cause of diarrhea type 4 (DIAR4) [MIM:610370]. DIAR4 is a characterized by severe, life- threatening watery diarrhea associated with generalized malabsorption and a paucity of enteroendocrine cells. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
