Six6 Opposite Strand Protein 1 (SIX6OS1)

C14orf39 May be involved in eye development through regulation of the SIX6 transcription factor. Highest expression in retina, skeletal muscle and colon.

Chromosome14 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 14 spans about 109 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 3 and 3.5% of the total DNA in cells.Identifying genes on each chromosome is an active area of genetic research. Because researchers use different approaches to predict the number of genes on each chromosome, the estimated number of genes varies. Chromosome 14 likely contains between 700 and 1,300 genes.
