Uncharacterized protein chromosome 7 open reading frame 61 is an asparagine-poor protein in humans encoded by the c7orf61 gene. The protein function is relatively unknown and is highly conserved in mammals.

Gene

[edit]

Locus

[edit]

C7orf61 is located on the reverse (or negative) DNA strand and is situated in chromosome 7 (7q22.1) from base pairs 100,456,615-100,464,271 - roughly 7,656 bp.[3] It has a total of 3 exons and lacks isoforms.

mRNA

[edit]

The mRNA is approximately 1019 bp and belongs to domain of unknown function 4703 (PFAM15775).[4]

Protein

[edit]

In humans, the protein contains a total of 206 amino acids.[3] The protein's molecular weight is 23.71 kDa and its isoelectric point is 10.41.[5] DUF4703 is positioned 22-206aa of the protein.[3] Neither the gene or its protein has another known alias, but can be found with high affinity in several primate species.[6]

Composition

[edit]

The amino acid composition of C7orf61 consists of high frequencies in leucine, serine, and charged valine.[7] The protein has an unusual low frequency in asparagine, making it an asparagine-deficient protein,[7] and contains higher frequencies of salt-bridge formations between glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, and arginine.[7]

Characteristics and structure

[edit]

The consent within secondary structure prediction tools CFSSP,[8] SSPRED,[9] and GOR4 [10] is that the protein's secondary structure consist mainly of α-helices (51.2%), with significant amounts of coiling (38.2%) and smaller fragments of beta strands (10.3%).

Post-translational modifications

[edit]

C7orf61 has several post-translation modification sites, most of which involve serine/threonine kinases - protein kinase C, Casein kinase II, DNA-dependent protein kinase, and Cyclin-dependent kinase 1. It is predicted to contain a Biparte nuclear localization signal (NLS_BP), a leucine-rich variant domain (LRV), and bacterial Ig-like domain (BIG-1).[12]

Subcellular localization

[edit]

C7orf61 does not contain any trans-membrane domains or signal peptides.[13][14] The protein is predicted to be localized in the Mitochondria, with little indication of extracellular activity.[15][16] Expanded analysis of amino acid sequence KFFRWVRRAWQRIISWVF near the N-terminal suggests the presence of a mitochondrial targeting signal.[17]

Gene regulation

[edit]

C7orf61 has high levels of expression in the testis and lower levels in the brain and connective tissues.[18] Through the assessment of microarray experiments available on NCBI Geo, its inferred that c7orf61 is under negative regulation.[19]

Homology

[edit]

C7orf61 does not have any paralogs. Analysis via NCBI tool BLASTt[20] found the gene to be highly conserved in mammals and could not be traced farther back than 160 MYA. The following table contains a list of orthologs found in several mammalian sub-classes - this is not a comprehensive list for the proteins orthology.
