Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Protein shroom3 also known as shroom-related protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "SHROOM3" gene.
Protein shroom3 is a PDZ domain-containing protein that belongs to a family of Shroom-related proteins. This protein may be involved in regulating cell shape in certain tissues.
Clinical relevance.
Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause heterotaxy. A similar protein in mice is required for proper neurulation, eye, and gut development.
