Source: NCBI Gene (ID 9166)
Symbol: EBAG9
Full name: estrogen receptor binding site associated antigen 9
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: EB9; PDAF
Summary: This gene was identified as an estrogen-responsive gene. Regulation of transcription by estrogen is mediated by estrogen receptor, which binds to the estrogen-responsive element found in the 5'-flanking region of this gene. The encoded protein is a tumor-associated antigen that is expressed at high frequency in a variety of cancers. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 10. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
