Disease relevance of SEZ6L

  • Identification of a 428-kb homozygously deleted region disrupting the SEZ6L gene at 22q12.1 in a lung cancer cell line [1].
  • The results of these studies representing 906 cases compared with 811 controls indicate a role of the SEZ6L Met430Ile polymorphic variant in increasing lung cancer risk [2].
 

High impact information on SEZ6L

  • SEZ6L expression was detected in a variety of human tissues, including lung, while its expression was detected in 14 (30%) of 46 lung cancer cell lines examined [1].
  • The deleted region contained the SEZ6L (Seizure 6-like) gene, whose structure had been partially determined by the chromosome 22 sequencing project [1].
  • The deduced SEZ6L protein was a transmembrane protein of 1024 amino acids with multiple domains involved in protein - protein interaction and signal transduction [1].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SEZ6L

  • We determined the full length cDNA sequence for the SEZ6L gene based on the genomic sequence for the SEZ6L locus using the GENSCAN program and the RT - PCR method [1].
