HMGN3 high mobility group nucleosomal binding domain 3 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 9324)
Symbol: HMGN3
Full name: high mobility group nucleosomal binding domain 3
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: PNAS-24; PNAS-25; TRIP7
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene binds thyroid hormone receptor beta in the presence of thyroid hormone. The encoded protein, a member of the HMGN protein family, is thought to reduce the compactness of the chromatin fiber in nucleosomes, thereby enhancing transcription from chromatin templates. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. There is a related pseudogene on chromosome 1. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
