Also known as FLJ90066BM88
Summary
CEND1 (cell cycle exit and neuronal differentiation 1, HGNC:24153) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11p15.5, encoding Cell cycle exit and neuronal differentiation protein 1 (Q8N111). Involved in neuronal differentiation.
The protein encoded by this gene is a neuron-specific protein. The similar protein in pig enhances neuroblastoma cell differentiation in vitro and may be involved in neuronal differentiation in vivo. Multiple pseudogenes have been reported for this gene.
