Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 57591
Gene name Myocardin related transcription factor A
Gene symbol MRTFA
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BSACMALMKLMKL1MRTF-A
Chromosome 22
Chromosome location 22q13.1-q13.2
Summary The protein encoded by this gene interacts with the transcription factor myocardin, a key regulator of smooth muscle cell differentiation. The encoded protein is predominantly nuclear and may help transduce signals from the cytoskeleton to the nucleus. Th
