Gene information for SNAI1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6615
Official gene symbolSNAI1
Full namesnail homolog 1 (Drosophila)
Aliases,SLUGH2,SNA,SNAH,dJ710H13.1,
Gene summaryThe Drosophila embryonic protein snail is a zinc finger transcriptional repressor which downregulates the expression of ectodermal genes within the mesoderm. The nuclear protein encoded by this gene is structurally similar to the Drosophila snail protein, and is also thought to be critical for mesoderm formation in the developing embryo. At least two variants of a similar processed pseudogene have been found on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq]
