C6orf120 chromosome 6 open reading frame 120 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: C6orf120provided by HGNC
Official Full Name: chromosome 6 open reading frame 120provided by HGNC
Primary source: HGNC:HGNC:21247
See related: Ensembl:ENSG00000185127 MIM:616987; AllianceGenome:HGNC:21247
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Summary: This gene encodes a conserved, N-glycosylated protein that likely functions in the cellular response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. This protein is able to induce apoptosis in vitro in CD4+ T-cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 13.9), adrenal (RPKM 13.5) and 25 other tissues See more

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
