QSER1 [SEP] chromosome
QSER1
Glutamine Serine Rich Protein 1 or QSER1 is a protein encoded by the "QSER1" gene.
The function of this protein is currently unknown. QSER1 has one alias, FLJ21924.
Gene.
Gene Location.
The QSER1 gene is found on the short arm of chromosome 11 (11p13), beginning at 32,914,792 bp and ending at 33,001,816 bp. It is 87,024 bp in length. It is located between the genes DEPDC7 and PRRG4 and is 500,000 bp downstream from the Wilms Tumor 1 gene (WT1)
, which is implicated in multiple pathologies.
Gene Homology.
Gene Homology Orthologs.
QSER1 is highly conserved in most species of the clade Chordata. Orthologs have been found in primates, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish as far back as the coelacanth, which diverged 414.9 million years ago.
Gene Homology Paralogs.
QSER1 has one paralog in humans, Proline-rich 12, or PRR12. PRR12 is found on chromosome 9 at 9q13.33, which does not have known function. PRR12 is found in most chordate species as far
