Disease relevance of C9orf5

 

High impact information on C9orf5

  • Genomic analysis of CG-2 identified 18 exons that span more than 110kb [1].
  • CG-2 was detected as a relatively abundant 8kb transcript in all adult and fetal tissues with the exception of adult thymus [1].
  • It was found that in Ca(2+) free solutions, CG-2 exists primarily as a highly quenched intramolecular dimer, but when bound to Ca(2+), the molecule adopts an extended, fluorescent conformation [2].
