Description
Product Characteristics: The protein encoded by this gene is localized in the nuclear matrix. It may play a role in transcription or may interact with other nuclear matrix proteins to form the internal fibrogranular network. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. Synonyms: Monoclonal MATR3 antibody, Anti-MATR3 antibody, Matrin 3 antibody, MGC9105 antibody, KIAA0723 antibody, DKFZp686K0542 antibody, DKFZp686K23100 antibody.
Target Information: This locus encodes a nuclear matrix protein. Mutations at this locus have been associated with distal myopathy 2, which often includes vocal cord and pharyngeal weakness. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, including read-through transcripts with an upstream locus have been described. Related pseuodgenes have been defined on chr1 and chrX.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
