FAM71F2
FAM71F2 or Family with Sequence Similarity 71 member F2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''Family with Sequence Similarity 71 member F2 gene''. This gene is highly active in the reproductive tissues, specifically the testis, and may serve as a potential biomarker for determining metastatic testicular cancer. Gene Location FAM71F2 gene is located on chromosome 7 in humans (7q32.1), starting at 128,671,636 and ending at 128,702,262 on the Sense (molecular biology), positive strand. The gene paralog FAM71F1 and the gene LINC01000 directly neighbor FAM71F2 on chromosome 7. Size of gene The gene spans 30,627 base pairs and codes for 12 exons. Common aliases FAM71F2 is also referred to as family with sequence similarity 137 member B, FAM137B. mRNA FAM71F2 has 14 transcript variants. ''Isoform'' ''a'' is the longest of the mRNA transcripts and spans 5,775 base pairs that translates into a 309 amino acids sequence. It codes for 5 exons. Other alternative splic ...

Chromosome 7
Chromosome 7 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans, who normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 7 spans about 160 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 5 and 5.5 percent of the total DNA in cells. Genes Number of genes The following are some of the gene count estimates of human chromosome 7. Because researchers use different approaches to genome annotation their predictions of the number of genes on each chromosome varies (for technical details, see gene prediction). Among various projects, the collaborative consensus coding sequence project ( CCDS) takes an extremely conservative strategy. So CCDS's gene number prediction represents a lower bound on the total number of human protein-coding genes. Gene list The following is a partial list of genes on human chromosome 7. For complete list, see the link in the infobox on the right. Diseases and disorders The following diseases are some of those related to gene ...
