From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chromosome 6 open reading frame 62 (C6orf62), also known as X-trans-activated protein 12 (XTP12),[ 5] is a gene that encodes a protein of the same name. The encoded protein is predicted to have a subcellular location within the cytosol.[ 6]
Gene and Transcript
In the DNA, C6orf62 is 12,529 base pairs long and is located at 6q22.3.[ 7] It is located on chromosome 6 on position 22.3 (6q22.3). The mature mRNA sequence is 2498 base-pairs long with 5 exons and 4 intronic regions that translates a protein that is 229 amino acids long and two predicted isoforms of 160 amino acids and 200 amino acids.[ 8] [ 9]
Protein
The main transcript is 229 amino acids long and is encoded from 5 exonic regions. There exists two transcript variants that are 200 amino acids and 160 amino acids long. There is a domain of unknown function (DUF4566) present in all three variants and spans positions 1-226 on the main transcript.[ 10] The molecular weight of C6orf62 is 27.1 kDa and its isoelectric point is at a pH of 9.24.
[ 11] It is located subcellularly localized throughout the cytosol.[ 6]
Protein Interactions
Expression
C6orf62 is broadly expressed within the human body, however, its protein abundance is not high.[ 14] It is more heavily expressed in the gallbladder and testis , but it is not predicted to be expressed in the smooth muscle , lymph nodes , the spleen , ovarie s, adipose tissue , and soft tissue .
Homology
C6orf62 is highly conserved among vertebrates and has orthologs found in invertebrates.
