SUMMARY back to top
RefSeq annotates one representative transcript from 2 predicted genes that we see see as a single gene (NM included in AceView variant.b), but Homo sapiens cDNA sequences in GenBank, dbEST, Trace and SRA, filtered against clone rearrangements, coaligned on the genome and clustered in a minimal non-redundant way by the manually supervised AceView program, support at least 8 spliced variants.

AceView synopsis, each blue text links to tables and details
Expression: According to AceView, this gene is expressed at high level, 2.5 times the average gene in this release. The sequence of this gene is defined by 304 GenBank accessions from 253 cDNA clones, some from liver and spleen (seen 27 times), uterus (14), pooled human melanocyte, fetal heart, andpregnant uterus (13), brain (11), lung (10), colon (9), placenta cot 25-normalized (9) and 81 other tissues. We annotate structural defects or features in 5 cDNA clones.
Alternative mRNA variants and regulation: The gene contains 10 distinct gt-ag introns. Transcription produces 10 different mRNAs, 8 alternatively spliced variants and 2 unspliced forms. There are 2 probable alternative promotors, 5 non overlapping alternative last exons and 6 validated alternative polyadenylation sites (see the diagram). The mRNAs appear to differ by truncation of the 5' end, truncation of the 3' end, overlapping exons with different boundaries, splicing versus retention of one intron.
Efficacy of translation may be reduced by the presence of a shorter translated product (uORF) initiating at an AUG upstream of the main open reading frame (in variant aAug10).
Function: There are 5 articles specifically referring to this gene in PubMed. Functionally, the gene has been proposed to participate in a process (regulation of cell shape). Proteins are expected to localize in various compartments (nucleus, cytoplasm, membrane).
Protein coding potential: 6 spliced mRNAs putatively encode good proteins, altogether 6 different isoforms (3 complete, 2 COOH complete, 1 partial), some containing paralemmin domain [Pfam], a prenylation domain, a coiled coil stretch [Psort2], apparently vertebrate specific. The remaining 4 mRNA variants (2 spliced, 2 unspliced; 1 partial) appear not to encode good proteins.
Isoform PALMD.cAug10 is annotated using as Met a Kozak-compatible a..AAGg start, thereby gaining 75 amino acids N-terminal to the first AUG. Finally proteins from this gene may be modulated by phosphorylation, as detailed at PhosphoSite.

Light gray is for weak not-accurately measured expression (2 to 8 reads above intergenic background); dark gray for no expression or no sequence conservation (0 read in gene). The plot to the right shows the distribution of measured expression values in all tissues for all genes (blue) and for this gene (green), in Magic index = log2(1000 sFPKM).

Exon size is proportional to length, intron height reflects the number of cDNAs supporting each intron, the small numbers show the support of the introns in deep sequencing (with details in mouse-over) . Introns of the same color are identical, of different colors are different. 'Good proteins' are pink, partial or not-good proteins are yellow, uORFs are green. 5' cap or3' poly A flags show completeness of the transcript.
