FXR1 FMR1 autosomal homolog 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 8087)
Symbol: FXR1
Full name: FMR1 autosomal homolog 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: FXR1P; MYOPMIL; MYORIBF
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is an RNA binding protein that interacts with the functionally-similar proteins FMR1 and FXR2. These proteins shuttle between the nucleus and cytoplasm and associate with polyribosomes, predominantly with the 60S ribosomal subunit. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
