RECQL4 RecQ like helicase 4 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 9401)
Symbol: RECQL4
Full name: RecQ like helicase 4
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: RECQ4
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA helicase that belongs to the RecQ helicase family. DNA helicases unwind double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNAs and may modulate chromosome segregation. This gene is predominantly expressed in thymus and testis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Rothmund-Thomson, RAPADILINO and Baller-Gerold syndromes. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
