This gene encodes a nuclear protein with a JmjC domain. JmjC domain-containing proteins are predicted to function as protein hydroxylases or histone demethylases. This protein was first identified as a putative phosphatidylserine receptor involved in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells; however, subsequent studies have indicated that it does not directly function in the clearance of apoptotic cells, and questioned whether it is a true phosphatidylserine receptor. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Fyn is a membrane-associated, non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase approximately 59kDa, which belongs to the Src family of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases. Fyn is very strongly similar to mouse Fyn, v-yes and c-src. Fyn is expressed predominately in tissues of neuronal and hematopoietic origin. Neuronal Fyn and hematopoietic Fyn differ at the junction of the SH2 and kinase domains due to tissue specific alternative splicing. Fyn has been shown to be involved in B cell and T cell activation as well as keratinocyte differentiation. In T cells, Fyn associates with the T-cell antigen receptor and Thy1. The unique N terminal domain of Fyn interacts with the CD3 and eta chains of the TcR. Fyn can bind to other proteins (p82 and p116) through its SH2 and SH3 domains, which may act as substrates or regulators of Fyn activity. Fyn is highly expressed in brain suggesting that it may have a role in the sensory nervous network and in myelination at early stages of CNS formation.

The transcriptional enhancer factor-1 (TEF-1) family of transcription factors regulate tissue-specific gene expression in muscle and placenta. The mechanism whereby TEF-1 confers tissue specificity depends largely on the interaction of TEF-1 with tissue-specific cofactors. Transcription cofactor Vgl-4 (vestigial-like protein 4) is a 290 amino acid nuclear protein that interacts with TEF-1 and MEF-2. Vgl-4 is the only member of the vestigial-like family that is expressed in heart. Overexpression of Vgl-4 in cardiac myocytes interferes with basal expression and ?-adrenergic receptor-dependent activation of a TEF-1 dependent skeletal ?actin promoter. This suggests that Vgl-4 counteracts ?-adrenergic activation of gene expression in cardiomyocytes. There are two isoforms of Vgl-4 that are produced as a result of alternative splicing events.

May be involved in neurite outgrowth.G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a large superfamily of cell-surface receptors that are involved in a multitude of physiological processes such as perception of sensory information, modulation of synaptic transmission, hormone release/action, regulation of cell contraction/migration and cell growth/differentiation. GPCRs interact with G proteins (heterotrimeric GTPases) to synthesize intracellular second messengers, such as diacylglycerol, cyclic AMP, inositol phosphates and calcium ions. Their diverse biological functions range from vision and olfaction to neuronal and endocrine signaling, and are involved in many pathological conditions. GRIN3 (G protein-regulated inducer of neurite outgrowth 3), also known as GPRIN3, is a 776 amino acid protein that contains a C-terminal region which shares a high homology with GRIN2 and GRIN1, and may function in neurite outgrowth.

ODF3B, also known as ODF3L3 (outer dense fiber protein 3-like protein 3), is a 253 amino acid protein belonging to the ODF3 family. Existing as two isoforms produced by alternative splicing, ODF3B contains one DUF1309 repeat. The gene that encodes ODF3B maps to human chromosome 22, which contains over 500 genes and about 49 million bases. Being the second smallest human chromosome, 22 contains a surprising variety of interesting genes. Phelan-McDermid syndrome, Neurofibromatosis type 2 and autism are associated with chromosome 22. A schizophrenia susceptibility locus has been identified on chromosome 22 and studies show that 22q11 deletion symptoms include a high incidence of schizophrenia. Translocations between chromosomes 9 and 22 may lead to the formation of the Philadelphia Chromosome and the subsequent production of the novel fusion protein, BCR-Abl, a potent cell proliferation activator found in several types of leukemia.

Fragile X syndrome is the most frequent form of inherited mental retardation and is the result of transcriptional silencing of the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome. The FMR1 gene contains a distinct CpG dinucleotide repeat located in the 5' untranslated region of the gene. In fragile X syndrome this tandem repeat is substantially amplified and subjected to extensive methylation and enhanced transcriptional silencing. The FMR1 protein (or FMRP) is an RNA-binding protein that associates with polyribosomes and is a likely component of a messenger ribonuclear protein (mRNP) particle. It contains several features that are characteristics of RNA-binding proteins, including two hnRNPK homology (KH) domains and an RGG amino acid motif (RGG box). FMR1 localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and can also interact with two fragile X syndrome related factors, FXR1 and FXR2, which form heterodimers through their N-terminal coiled-coil domains. Since FMR1 contains both a nuclear localization signal and a nuclear export signal it is also implicated in the nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNAs.

HkRP3, also known as CCDC88B (coiled-coil domain-containing protein 88B) or BRLZ (brain leucine zipper domain-containing protein), is a 1,476 amino acid protein that belongs to the CCDC88 family. Members of the hook-related protein family are characterized by the presence of a C-terminal hook-related domain and an N-terminal potential microtubule binding domain. HkRP3 may be involved in the linkage of various organelles to microtubules, and exists as six alternatively spliced isoforms. The gene encoding HkRP3 maps to human chromosome 11q13.1 and mouse chromosome 19 A. Chromosome 11 houses over 1,400 genes and comprises nearly 4% of the human genome. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, Jacobsen syndrome, Niemann-Pick disease, hereditary angioedema and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome are associated with defects in genes that maps to chromosome 11.

CCDC148 (coiled-coil domain containing 148), also known as MGC125590 or MGC125588, is a 591 amino acid protein encoded by a gene mapping to human chromosome 2. The second largest human chromosome, 2 consists of 237 million bases encoding over 1,400 genes and making up approximately 8% of the human genome. A number of genetic diseases are linked to genes on chromosome 2. Harlequin icthyosis, a rare and morbid skin deformity, is associated with mutations in the ABCA12 gene. The lipid metabolic disorder sitosterolemia is associated with ABCG5 and ABCG8. An extremely rare recessive genetic disorder, Alstré°‰ syndrome is due to mutations in the ALMS1 gene. Interestingly, chromosome 2 contains what appears to be a vestigial second centromere and vestigial telomeres which gives credence to the hypothesis that human chromosome 2 is the result of an ancient fusion of two ancestral chromosomes seen in modern form today in apes.

The CCR4-NOT complex is an evolutionarily conserved, multi-component complex known to be involved in transcription as well as mRNA degradation. Various subunits within the complex are involved in influencing nuclear hormone receptor activities. The CCR4-NOT complex is also involved in the regulation of Histone H3 lysine 4 methylation through a ubiquitin-dependent pathway that likely involves the proteasome. CNOT8 (CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 8), also known as CALIF or POP2, is a 292 amino acid protein that localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and functions as part of the CCR-NOT complex. Expressed ubiquitously, CNOT8 plays a role in transcriptional regulation for a diverse set of processes.

PiggyBac transposable element derived 3, also known as PGBD3, encodes a 593 amino acid transposase and is a member of the piggyBac transposable element derived (PGBD) gene family, which includes several genes that are derived from piggyBac transposons. Initially characterized in the cabbacge looper moth, Trichoplusia ni, the PGBD family is conserved in a wide variety of species, including protozoa and primates. More specifically, while PGBD3 and PGBD4 are primate-specific genes, the other three members of the PGBD family (namely PGBD1, PGBD2 and PGBD5) are conserved among a variety of vertebrates. PGBD3 appears to be novel, with no clear relationship to other transposases or other known protein families. However, the PGBD3 gene overlaps with the CSB gene on chromosome 10 and, with the CSB gene, plays a role in Cockayne syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by premature aging, microcephaly, photosensitivity and severe neurologic degeneration.
