FEV wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human FEV wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 2q35 and is approximately 5 kb in length. This allele, which encodes protein FEV, may be involved in the negative regulation of transcription. Variation in the FEV gene may be associated with susceptibility to sudden infant death syndrome. A complex chromosomal translocation t(2;21;22)(q23;q22;q12) that fuses this gene and the EWSR1 gene is associated with Ewing sarcoma.
