C22orf31 (chromosome 22, open reading frame 31) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the C22orf31 gene. The C22orf31 mRNA transcript has an upstream in-frame stop codon, while the protein has a domain of unknown function (DUF4662) spanning the majority of the protein-coding region. [3] The protein has orthologs with high percent similarity in mammals. [4] The most distant orthologs are found in species of bony fish, but C22orf31 is not found in any species of birds or amphibians.

Contents

Similar to many proteins, C22orf31 is found to be highly expressed in the testes. Analysis of in vivo mature oocytes has revealed increased levels of C22orf31 [5] while promoter analysis has identified transcription factors for C22orf31 that are active during myeloid cell differentiation. [6]

Gene

C22orf31 is located on the minus strand of chromosome 22 at 20q12.1. [7] The gene is 3,172 base pairs long and spans from chr22: 29,058,672 to 29,061,844. [8] C22orf31 contains 3 exons and is also known by the aliases BK747E2.1 and HS747E2A.

Transcript

There is one transcript of C22orf31. The mRNA sequence is 1,070 base pairs long and contains an upstream in-frame stop codon from nucleotide 122–124. [9]

General properties

The protein encoded by C22orf31 is 290 amino acids in length with a predicted molecular mass of 33kDa. [10] The isoelectric point of the protein is 10, indicating that the pH of the protein is basic. The C22orf31 protein contains a domain of unknown function (DUF4662) from amino acid 2 – 263. [11] The secondary and tertiary structure of this protein is not well known.

Isoforms

C22orf31 has two protein isoforms. [12] A comparison of these isoforms is shown in the table below.

Composition

The protein derived from C22orf31 is considered somewhat rich in lysine and somewhat poor in phenylalanine compared to the composition of the average human protein. [16] There are no positive, negative, mixed, or uncharged segments in C22orf31. There are also no transmembrane components or signal peptides in the protein.

Regulation

Gene level regulation

Transcription factor binding sites

The C22orf31 promoter has many transcription factor binding sites. [6] C22orf31's transcription factors are commonly found in immortalized liver cancer cell lines (HepG2) and immortalized myelogenous leukemia cell lines (K562). [17] The presence of C/EBP epsilon suggests a role for C22orf31 in myeloid cell differentiation. The presence of ARNT, which is typically associated with hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha, suggests a role for C22orf31 in the formation of acute myeloblastic leukemia. [18]

Expression

C22orf31 has been found to have moderate expression in the testes and low amounts of expression in the brain and ovaries. [19] The protein is also expressed in fetal tissue as well as adult tissues. C22orf31 has been seen to have increased conditional expression in vivo matured oocytes in comparison to metaphase II oocytes. [5]

Transcript level regulation

There are no microRNA binding sites found in C22orf31. [20] Three functionally important stem loops are predicted in both the 3' UTR and 5' UTR of C22orf31. [21]

Conceptual translation of C22orf31 including post-translational modifications, domains, and other features.

C22orf31 is predicted to undergo several types of post-translational modifications. With a high degree of certainty, it is predicted that C22orf31 undergoes O-glycosylation, [22] glycation, [23] phosphorylation, [24] and O-GlcNAcylation. [25] Only two phosphorylation sites are located in highly conserved regions of the protein. These modifications can be seen in the conceptual translation on the right.

Corrected percent divergence of protein orthologs from C22orf31, cytochrome c, and fibrinogen alpha chain over time.

When compared to other proteins, namely fibrinogen alpha chain and cytochrome c, C22orf31 is a moderately evolving protein. This was determined by calculating the corrected percent divergence, using molecular clock equations, [28] of different orthologs for each protein in comparison to their date of divergence. A physical representation of this information can be seen in the divergence graph on the right.

Interacting Proteins

C22orf31 interacts physically with 3 different proteins, according to the BioGRID, [29] Mentha, [30] and IntAct [31] protein interaction browsers. In particular, C22orf31 interacts with two histone deacetylases (HDAC1 and HDAC2) and the protein Lacritin (LACRT). These interactions were determined using high-throughput affinity-purification mass spectrometry [32] [33] A biochemical association has also been determined through protein microarray between C22orf31 and F-box protein 7 (FBOX7). [29] All of these proteins, with additional information, are shown in the table below.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">PANO1</span> Mammalian protein found in Homo sapiens

PANO1 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PANO1 gene. PANO1 is an apoptosis inducing protein that is able to regulate the function of tumor suppressor. More specifically, P14ARF is a protein in which in humans is modulated by the PANO1 gene. P14ARF is known to function as a tumor suppressor. When PANO1 is highly expressed in the cells, it is able to modulate p14ARF by stabilizing it and protecting it from degradation. With a confidence level of 5 out of 5, PANO1 has been theorized to be expressed in the nucleolus of the cell. PANO1 is an intron-less gene. Intron-less genes only make up about 3% of the human genome. A functional analysis of these types of genes revealed that they often have tissue-specific expression in tissues such as the nervous system and testis. This kind of expression is commonly associated with neuropathies, disease, and cancer. The tissue types that PANO1 has the highest expression in, are the cerebellum regions of the brain as well as pituitary and testis tissues.
