Name
v-myc avian myelocytomatosis viral related oncogene, neuroblastoma derived
Synonyms
  • bHLHe37
  • N-myc
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and kinase binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of with a positive effect on autosome genomic imprinting. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of astrocyte differentiation; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and skeletal system morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; lung; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Feingold syndrome. Orthologous to human MYCN (MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit impaired development of the mesonephric tubules, neuroepithelium, sensory ganglia, heart, lung, stomach, and liver. Mutants die around embryonic day 11.5. [provided by MGI curators]
