Full name: TEA domain transcription factor 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: AA; NTEF-1; REF1; TCF-13; TCF13; TEAD-1; TEF-1

Summary: This gene encodes a ubiquitous transcriptional enhancer factor that is a member of the TEA/ATTS domain family. This protein directs the transactivation of a wide variety of genes and, in placental cells, also acts as a transcriptional repressor. Mutations in this gene cause Sveinsson's chorioretinal atrophy. Additional transcript variants have been described but their full-length natures have not been experimentally verified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
