About ATRX

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA translocase activity; chromo shadow domain binding activity; and methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chromatin assembly; regulation of chromosome organization; and regulation of telomeric RNA transcription from RNA pol II promoter. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including male gonad development; meiotic spindle organization; and post-embryonic forelimb morphogenesis. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked mental retardation-hypotonic facies syndrome-1; alpha thalassemia-X-linked intellectual disability syndrome; alpha-thalassemia myelodysplasia syndrome; high grade glioma; and lung small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human ATRX (ATRX chromatin remodeler). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
