Protein FAM40A is a protein that is located on chromosome 1 in humans and is encoded by the FAM40A gene. [5] [6] [7]

Contents

Characteristics and secondary structure

FAM40A has an isoelectric point of 5.92 and a molecular weight of 95,575 daltons. [8] It is predicted to have three transmembrane domains, making it a transmembrane protein. [9] FAM40A does not contain a signal peptide and is also predicted to bind to DNA, possibly making it a membrane protein in the nuclear membrane. [10] [11]

The secondary structure of FAM40A is predicted to contain twenty-six alpha helices and two beta sheets. [12] The 5' untranslated region of FAM40A is predicted to contain one stem-loop and the 3' untranslated region is predicted to contain eight stem-loop structures. [13] Two miRNAs are predicted to bind to two of the stem-loop structures present in the 3' UTR region. [14]

Homology

FAM40A has no paralogs. However, it does have orthologs stretching all the way back to yeast. It has been suggested that FAM40A is a homolog to the yeast gene FAR11, which is involved in the recovery from cell cycle arrest. [15] [16]

The following table represents a small selection of orthologs found using searches in BLAST [17] and BLAT. [18] This is by no means a comprehensive list, however it does show the vast diversity of species where FAM40A orthologs are found.

Expression

FAM40A is expressed in high levels during the blastocyst, eight-cell stage, and fetal stages of development. [19] FAM40A has also been shown to be expressed in high levels in the mammary glands, brain, thymus, mouth and the testes. [20] It has also been shown to be expressed in high levels in mammary gland tumors, leukemia cells, and germ cell tumors. [20]

Transcription Regulation

FAM40A is predicted to have a promoter region 789 base pairs upstream of the start of transcription. [21] The SOX transcription factors are predicted to bind to the promoter region of the FAM40A gene, possibly indicating a role in sex determination. [21]

Interactions

FAM40A has been shown to interact with RP6-213H19.1, [22] STRN, [22] PDCD10, [22] TRAF3IP3, [22] STRN3, [22] PPP2R1A, [22] MOBKL3, [22] CTTNBP2NL, [22] STK24 [22] [23] and PPP2CA. [22]
