Human Gene KIAA1549 (ENST00000422774.2) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens KIAA1549 (KIAA1549), transcript variant 2, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_001164665)
RefSeq Summary (NM_001164665): The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the UPF0606 family. This gene has been found to be fused to the BRAF oncogene in many cases of pilocytic astrocytoma. The fusion results from 2Mb tandem duplications at 7q34. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012].

  ID: K1549_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=UPF0606 protein KIAA1549;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (Potential).
DISEASE: Note=A chromosomal aberration involving KIAA1549 is found in pilocytic astrocytoma. A tandem duplication of 2 Mb at 7q34 leads to the expression of a KIAA1549-BRAF fusion protein with a constitutive kinase activity and inducing cell transformation.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the UPF0606 family.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAH38232.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened;

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  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.
