C12ORF4
Description
C12ORF4, located on chromosome 12, is a gene with a poorly understood function. It encodes a protein of unknown structure and activity, making its role in cellular processes and potential disease associations difficult to decipher. However, emerging research suggests a possible involvement in various pathways, including cell growth, apoptosis, and immune response. Despite the limited knowledge, the gene‘s expression patterns and its association with certain diseases highlight its potential significance in human health.
Associated Diseases
- Cancer (specifically colorectal cancer and breast cancer)
- Neurodevelopmental disorders
- Autoimmune diseases
Did you know?
The C12ORF4 gene has been linked to the regulation of apoptosis, a process of programmed cell death, potentially influencing the development and progression of various diseases.
