INA wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human INA wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 10q24.33 and is approximately 13 kb in length. This allele, which encodes alpha-internexin protein, plays a role in neurofilament organization. Chromosomal rearrangement that fuses this gene and the FGFR2 gene may be associated with low-grade mixed neuronal-glial tumor.

**Synonyms:** - Internexin Neuronal Intermediate Filament Protein Alpha wt Allele - Internexin Neuronal Intermediate Filament Protein, Alpha Gene - Internexin, Alpha Gene - NEF5 - NF-66 - NF66 - Neurofilament 5 (66kD) Gene - Neurofilament, 66-kD Gene - Neurofilament-66, Tax-Binding Protein Gene - TXBP-1
