C4orf29-Chromosome 4 Open Reading Frame 29
ABHD18 is a protein that in ''Homo sapiens'' is encoded by the ABHD18 gene. Gene ABHD18 is found on the positive strand of the human genome at 4q28.2. It is 74.4 kbp. The gene contains 17 exons. The longest mRNA transcript is composed of 13 exons and is 2200 base pairs. Homology Orthologs Many orthologs to human ABHD18 have been discovered, with the most distant ortholog with high (over 90%) coverage is found in rice ''Oryza sativa''. The protein is not found in fungi. Bacteria of the order Myxobacteria and genus Chitinimonas contain orthologous regions to the C4orf29 protein. The few bacterial homologs indicate a horizontal gene transfer event. The domain of unknown function, DUF2048, is conserved throughout orthologs. Protein ABHD18 codes a 414 amino acid sequence of 46.9 kDa in humans. The predicted isoelectric point is 9.37. The domain of unknown function, DUF2048, is found from amino acid residues 25 to 414 in the precursor C4orf29 protein. This domain is part ...

Homo Sapiens
Humans (''Homo sapiens'') are the most abundant and widespread species of primate, characterized by bipedalism and exceptional cognitive skills due to a large and complex brain. This has enabled the development of advanced tools, culture, and language. Humans are highly social and tend to live in complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families and kinship networks to political states. Social interactions between humans have established a wide variety of values, social norms, and rituals, which bolster human society. Its intelligence and its desire to understand and influence the environment and to explain and manipulate phenomena have motivated humanity's development of science, philosophy, mythology, religion, and other fields of study. Although some scientists equate the term ''humans'' with all members of the genus ''Homo'', in common usage, it generally refers to ''Homo sapiens'', the only extant member. Anatomically mod ...
