Neuroblastoma Breakpoint Family, Member 16 (NBPF16)

AG3

Neuroblastoma Breakpoint Family, Member 16 (NBPF16)
NBPF16, is 18762 bp long, with mRNA that is 3837 bp long. The gene is located on chromosome 1q21.1. Its sub-cellular location is predicted to be in the nucleus and cytoplasm. It contains what is known as the NBPF repeat, which is a two exon strech of sequence that is characteristic of all 21 members of the NBPF gene family. The repeat is considered the ancestral exons, and the NBPF family has been linked to primate evolution.
The protein is composed of 670 amino acids. The gene contains five domains of unknown function, called DUF1220. DUF1220 domains are found in all members of the NBPF gene family, although the number differs between each member. Repetitive structure with high intergenic and intragenic sequence conservation, both in coding and noncoding regions.
