Chromosome 7 Open Reading Frame 43 (C7orf43)

Chromosome 7 Open Reading Frame 43 (C7orf43)
Chromosome 7 Open Reading Frame 43 is a protein encoded by the 7 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 7 spans more than 158 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 5 and 5.5 percent 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 7 is likely to contain between 1,000 and 1,400 genes. It also contains the Homeobox A gene cluster.
