GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

AFF4 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

AF5Q31, MCEF

Description

AF4/FMR2 family, member 4 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the AF4 family of transcription factors involved in leukemia. It is a component of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and MLL gene on chromosome 11 is found in infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia with ins(5;11)(q31;q31q23). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
