DNASE1L3 deoxyribonuclease 1 like 3 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1776)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1776)
Symbol: DNASE1L3
Full name: deoxyribonuclease 1 like 3
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: DHP2; DNAS1L3; LSD; SLEB16
Summary: This gene encodes a member of the deoxyribonuclease I family. The encoded protein hydrolyzes DNA, is not inhibited by actin, and mediates the breakdown of DNA during apoptosis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of systemic lupus erythematosus-16. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
