From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Delta-like 3 (Drosophila) , also known as DLL3 , is a protein which in humans is encoded by the DLL3 gene .[ 5] Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
Function
This gene encodes a member of the delta protein ligand family. This family functions as Notch ligands that are characterized by a DSL domain, EGF repeats , and a transmembrane domain.[ 6]
Clinical significance
Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal recessive genetic disorder Jarcho-Levin syndrome .[ 7]
