About CBX7

Cytogenetic location: 22q13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 22:39,130,772-39,152,680 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 269 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 27.3), endometrium (RPKM 25.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that contains the CHROMO (CHRomatin Organization MOdifier) domain. The encoded protein is a component of the Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1), and is thought to control the lifespan of several normal human cells. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
