MKRN3, Official Symbol MKRN3provided by HGNC Official Full Name makorin ring finger protein 3provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:7114 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000179455 MIM:603856; AllianceGenome:HGNC:7114 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as CPPB2; D15S9; RNF63; ZFP127; ZNF127 Summary The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING (C3HC4) zinc finger motif and several C3H zinc finger motifs. This gene is intronless and imprinted, with expression only from the paternal allele. Disruption of the imprinting at this locus may contribute to Prader-Willi syndrome. An antisense RNA of unknown function has been found overlapping this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] Orthologs mouse all
