High impact information on FAM50A

  • The XAP-5 and X5L genes are expressed in a wide range of tissues but are differentially expressed in testis [1].
  • A comparison to genomic sequence shows that XAP-5 comprises 13 exons spanning 6.5 kb [2].
  • Camphorquinone with VL irradiation increased the radical production, whereas 9F with VL irradiation increased ROS production, as well as effecting changes in the DPPC phase-transition properties [3].
  • These findings were compared with those of 9-fluorenone (9F), an aromatic photo-initiator with long conjugated groups [3].
  • The isolated cDNA, termed HXC-26, contained an open reading frame of 975 nucleotides encoding 325 amino acids (38,848 Da) [4].
