About USB1

Cytogenetic location: 16q21 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:57,999,603-58,021,618 (from NCBI)

This gene has 21 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in appendix (RPKM 7.3), bone marrow (RPKM 6.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein with several conserved domains, however, its exact function is not known. Mutations in this gene are associated with poikiloderma with neutropenia (PN), which shows phenotypic overlap with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) caused by mutations in the RECQL4 gene. It is believed that this gene product interacts with RECQL4 protein via SMAD4 proteins, explaining the partial clinical overlap between PN and RTS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
