ATXN7 (Ataxin 7) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with ATXN7 include Spinocerebellar Ataxia 7 and Retinal Degeneration. Among its related pathways are Akt Signaling and Chromatin organization. The encoded protein is a component of the SPT3/TAF9/GCN5 acetyltransferase (STAGA) and TBP-free TAF-containing (TFTC) chromatin remodeling complexes, and it thus plays a role in transcriptional regulation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
