Human Gene ESPN (ENST00000636330.1) from GENCODE V44
Description: espin (from HGNC ESPN) RefSeq Summary (NM_031475): This gene encodes a multifunctional actin-bundling protein. It plays a major role in regulating the organization, dimensions, dynamics, and signaling capacities of the actin filament-rich, microvillus-type specializations that mediate sensory transduction in various mechanosensory and chemosensory cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive neurosensory deafness, and autosomal dominant sensorineural deafness without vestibular involvement. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]. Sequence Note: This RefSeq record was created from transcript and genomic sequence data to make the sequence consistent with the reference genome assembly. The genomic coordinates used for the transcript record were based on transcript alignments. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000636330.1 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000187017.18 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr1:6,424,788-6,456,671 Size: 31,884 Total Exon Count: 11 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr1:6,424,956-6,456,197 Size: 31,242 Coding Exon Count: 11
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
