YWHAZ Gene Information

HGNC symbol
YWHAZ 
Aliases
14-3-3-zeta; KCIP-1; YWHAD 
Common name
tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein zeta 
Entrez Id
7534
Description
This gene product belongs to the 14-3-3 family of proteins which mediate signal transduction by binding to phosphoserine-containing proteins. This highly conserved protein family is found in both plants and mammals, and this protein is 99% identical to the mouse, rat and sheep orthologs. The encoded protein interacts with IRS1 protein, suggesting a role in regulating insulin sensitivity. Several transcript variants that differ in the 5' UTR but that encode the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008].
