TAF15 wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human TAF15 wild-type allele is located within 17q11.1-q11.2 and is approximately 38 kb in length. This allele, which encodes TATA-binding protein-associated factor 2N protein, is involved in gene expression. Translocation t(9;17)(q22;q11) involving the TAF15 gene and the NR4A3 gene is associated with extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma.
