NFE2L3 encodes Nrf3, a transcription factor of the Cap'n'collar (CNC) family. Nrf3 is expressed predominantly in the fetal liver and hematopoietic tissues in development, but is expressed at lower levels in adult tissues including brain. Nrf3 can heterodimerize with small Maf proteins and bind to antioxidant response elements. Its role in neurodegeneration is less characterized than Nrf2, but evidence suggests it may contribute to oxidative stress defense in certain contexts.
High expression in fetal liver and hematopoietic tissues. Lower expression in adult brain, lung, and other tissues.
