Transcription factor E3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TFE3 gene.[1][2][3]

Function

TFE3, a member of the helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors, binds to the mu-E3 motif of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain enhancer and is expressed in many cell types (Henthorn et al., 1991).[supplied by OMIM][3]

Interactions

TFE3 has been shown to interact with:

Translocations

A proportion of renal carcinomas (RCC) that occur in young patients are associated with translocations involving the TFE3 gene at chromosome Xp11.2 PRCC
