关于 MAGEA10

功能概要

该基因是 MAGEA 基因家族的成员。这个家族的成员编码的蛋白质彼此之间有 50% 到 80% 的序列同一性。 MAGEA 基因的启动子和第一个外显子显示出相当大的变异性，表明该基因家族的存在使得相同的功能能够在不同的转录控制下表达。 MAGEA 基因聚集在染色体位置 Xq28。它们与某些遗传性疾病有关，例如先天性角化不良。可变剪接导致多个转录本变体。该基因与下游黑色素瘤抗原家族 A, 5 (MAGEA5) 基因之间也存在通读转录。[RefSeq 提供，2011 年 10 月]

This gene is a member of the MAGEA gene family. The members of this family encode proteins with 50 to 80% sequence identity to each Other. The promoters and first exons of the MAGEA genes show considerable variability, suggesting that the existence of this gene family enables the same function to be expressed under different transcriptional controls. The MAGEA genes are clustered at chromosomal location Xq28. They have been implicated in some hereditary disorders, such as dyskeratosis congenita. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream melanoma antigen family A, 5 (MAGEA5) gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
