FAM120AOS
Description
The FAM120AOS (family with sequence similarity 120 member A opposite strand) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 9.
FAM120AOS, or family with sequence similarity 120A opposite strand, is a gene that codes for the uncharacterized protein FAM120AOS, which currently has no known function. The gene ontology classifies it as protein binding. The thyroid and placenta show the highest expression levels of FAM120AOS across various datasets. Analysis of GDS3834 data revealed that the bladder, epididymis, and thyroid exhibit high expression levels of FAM120AOS, with the thyroid reaching the 91st percentile and the other two at the 90th percentile. The high thyroid expression observed across both microarray and RNA-seq data suggests a potential role of FAM120AOS in thyroid function.
