Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4613
Gene name MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor
Gene symbol MYCN
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
FGLDS1MODEDMPAPAMYCNsORFMYCNsPEPN-mycNMYCODEDbHLHe37
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2p24.3
Summary This gene is a member of the MYC family and encodes a protein with a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. This protein is located in the nucleus and must dimerize with another bHLH protein in order to bind DNA. Amplification of this gene is associated wi
