Summary
This gene encodes a sialoglycoprotein that is expressed on mature granulocytes and in many B cells. The encoded protein is anchored via a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI) link to the cell surface. An alignment of this gene's sequence finds genomic locations with similarity on chromosomes 3p26, 15q21, 15q22, 20q11.2 and Yq11.1. Whether transcription, and corresponding translation, occurs at each of these other genomic locations needs to be experimentally determined.
Annotation information
Note: CD24, GeneID 934, was annotated on chromosome Y on NCBI's build 36.2. Sequences associated with GeneID 934 have their best alignment to Yq11.2 because of missing genomic sequence in the assembly. The correct location of GeneID 934 is 6q21 and the locus at Yq11.2 represents a CD24 pseudogene (GeneID 938). The RefSeqs for CD24 and the pseudogene are NM_013230 and NG_006012, respectively.
