Disease relevance of BTG4

 

High impact information on BTG4

  • POU2AF1 is a B-cell-specific transcriptional coactivator, and BTG4 is a member of the BTG family of negative regulators of the cell cycle, making both of them good candidate genes for the pathogenesis of 11q- CLL [1].
  • The BTG4 gene, encoding BTG/TOB family protein, as well as the SIK2 gene, encoding salt-inducible serine/threonine kinase 2, were also located within the 11q23.1 region [2].
