EVA1C


Description

The EVA1C (eva-1 homolog C) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 21.

EVA1C (Eva-1 Homolog C) is a transmembrane protein in humans (Homo sapiens) encoded by the EVA1C gene on Chromosome 21. The EVA1C protein is thought to be involved in heparin binding activity. The gene is associated with diseases such as X-Linked Intellectual Disability-Short Stature-Overweight Syndrome.

Gene

  • Aliases: B18, B19, C21orf63, C21orf64, FAM176C, PRED34, and SUE21 are aliases of the EVA1C gene.
  • Locus: EVA1C is located on the plus strand of Chromosome 21 (21q22.11). The span of the EVA1C gene is 103,394 bases (chr21:33,784,314-33,887,707).

RNA

  • Isoforms: EVA1C has 9 isoforms with EVA1C isoform X1 being the longest. This isoform is 441 amino acids in length.
  • Expression: EVA1C RNA is most highly expressed in the prostate, lungs, uterus, and heart. It is also highly expressed in the human stomach at 20 weeks postnatal, whereas it is most highly expressed in the heart at 11 weeks postnatal.

EVA1C is also known as B18, B19, C21orf63, C21orf64, FAM176C, PRED34, SUE21.
