人 BHLHE41 (NM_030762) cDNA克隆

This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the Hairy/Enhancer of Split subfamily of basic helix-loop-helix factors. The encoded protein functions as a transcriptional repressor and as a regulator of molecular clock. Defects in this gene are associated with the short sleep phenotype. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
