Also known as neuronal PAS domain protein 3, MOP6, PASD6, bHLHe12
NPAS3 or Neuronal PAS domain protein 3 is a brain-enriched transcription factor belonging to the bHLH-PAS superfamily of transcription factors, the members of which carry out diverse functions, including circadian oscillations, neurogenesis, toxin metabolism, hypoxia, and tracheal development. NPAS3 contains a basic helix-loop-helix structural motif and two PAS domain, like the other proteins in the superfamily.
This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix and PAS domain-containing family of transcription factors. The encoded protein is localized to the nucleus and may regulate genes involved in neurogenesis. Chromosomal abnormalities that affect the coding potential of this gene are associated with schizophrenia and cognitive disability. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

It functions as an heterodimer by binding ARNT2, another member of the bHLH-PAS superfamily.
