Genes affected
LGALS8 (HGNC:6569): (galectin 8) This gene encodes a member of the galectin family. Galectins are beta-galactoside-binding animal lectins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. The galectins have been implicated in many essential functions including development, differentiation, cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix interaction, growth regulation, apoptosis, and RNA splicing. This gene is widely expressed in tumoral tissues and seems to be involved in integrin-like cell interactions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
HEATR1 (HGNC:25517): (HEAT repeat containing 1) Enables RNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of rRNA processing and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase I. Located in fibrillar center and mitochondrion. Implicated in pancreatic ductal carcinoma. Biomarker of glioblastoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
