Nrl neural retina leucine zipper gene [ Mus musculus (house mouse) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 18185)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 18185)
Symbol: Nrl
Full name: neural retina leucine zipper gene
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: D14H14S46E
Summary: This gene encodes a member of the basic leucine zipper domain family of transcription factors. The encoded protein is preferentially expressed in the retina and is necessary for rod photoreceptor development. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
