C1orf52
Chromosome 1 open reading frame 52, is a protein encoded by the C1orf52 gene. C1orf52 is localized in the nucleus in most tissues.[1]
Gene
C1orf52 is located on the minus strand of the short arm of Chromosome 1 at 1p22.3.[2] Including introns and exons, the gene is 9,720 base pairs with 3 exons.[3]
Gene Neighborhood
The gene neighborhood of C1orf52 consists of B-cell lymphoma 10 (BCL10), B-cell lymphoma antisense 1 (BCL-AS1), dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 (DDAH1), and synapse defective Rho GTPase homolog 2 (SYDE2).[2]
Transcript
Including untranslated regions, the mRNA is 3254 base pairs long.[4]
Transcript Variants
There is a transcript variant that includes an additional exon.[2] This alternate exon in the coding region in variant 2 results in a frameshift after nucleotide 306 and early stop codon. The C1orf52 protein is not formed by this transcript because the product is significantly truncated and the transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated decay.[2]
| Exons | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Protein Length (amino acids) |
| Transcript Variant 1 | 306 | - | 199 | 2750 | 182 |
| Transcript Variant 2 | 306 | 127 | 199 | 2750 | none |
Protein
The C1orf52 protein consists of 182 amino acids with a molecular weight of 20 kDa and an isoelectric point of 5 pI.[3] The protein contains a domain of unknown function (DUF4660), also known as pFAM15559, that is 98 amino acids long.[3] The domain of unknown function is flanked by two disordered regions, which make up the majority of the rest of the protein. C1orf52 enables RNA binding activity. Compared to other human proteins, C1orf52 is proline, glutamate, and lysine rich as well as valine, glutamine, and leucine deficient.
No protein isoforms of C1orf52 have been reported. [5]
DOMAINS AND MOTIFS
Structure
There is a high amount of disorder in the secondary and tertiary protein structure, with very few predicted alpha helixes or beta sheets.
Gene Level Regulation
Expression Patterns
C1orf52 mRNA is ubiquitiously expressed at high levels in human tissues, with higher abundance in bone marrow, brain regions, and immune organs (thymus and thyroid), with lower expression in digestive organs.
The 5' untranslated region of C1orf52 is 29 base pairs long.
The 3' untranslated region is 2676 base pairs long and contains two polyadenylation signals and sites.
Protein Level Regulation
The C1orf52 protein has higher than average abundance than other proteins in humans. It is predicted to be found in the nucleus of cells in most tissue types. There are predicted to be 6 phosphorylation sites, 2 SUMOylation sites, 4 O-glycosylation sites, 2 acetylation sites, and 1 ubiquintination sites.

Homology
Paralogs
No paralogs of C1orf52 have been identified in the human genome.[5]
Orthologs
C1orf52 orthologs are found in all common classes of vertebrates: fish, birds, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals. Orthologs were also found in invertebrates including sponges, marine tunicate, and lanclets. Orthologs were not found in insects, fungi, plants or protists.

Evolution
The C1orf52 gene appear most distantly in sea sponges which diverged from humans approximatly 758 million years ago.[6] C1orf52 is predicted to evolve at a moderate pace, slower than the known fast evolving protein Fibrinogen Alpha but faster than the known slow evolving protein Cytochrome C.
