GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
TREX1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
AGS1, DRN3
Description
Three prime repair exonuclease 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a nuclear protein with 3' exonuclease activity. The encoded protein may play a role in DNA repair and serve as a proofreading function for DNA polymerase. Mutations in this gene result in Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome, chilblain lupus, Cree encephalitis, and other diseases of the immune system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
