About AGO1

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:35,869,761-35,930,532 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 217 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 4.5), brain (RPKM 3.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the argonaute family of proteins, which associate with small RNAs and have important roles in RNA interference (RNAi) and RNA silencing. This protein binds to MicroRNAs (miRNAs) or small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and represses translation of mRNAs that are complementary to them. It is also involved in transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) of promoter regions that are complementary to bound short antigene RNAs (agRNAs), as well as in the degradation of miRNA-bound mRNA targets. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A recent study showed this gene to be an authentic stop codon readthrough target, and that its mRNA could give rise to an additional C-terminally extended isoform by use of an alternative in-frame translation termination codon.
