Source: NCBI Gene (ID 373863)
Symbol: DND1
Full name: DND microRNA-mediated repression inhibitor 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: RBMS4
Summary: This gene encodes a protein that binds to microRNA-targeting sequences of mRNAs, inhibiting microRNA-mediated repression. Reduced expression of this gene has been implicated in tongue squamous cell carcinoma. Two pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 7.3), colon (RPKM 6.1) and 25 other tissues
Orthologs: mouse
