About NACA

Cytogenetic location: 12q13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:56,712,427-56,725,299 (from NCBI)

This gene has 26 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 75 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 104.2), bone marrow (RPKM 62.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that associates with basic transcription factor 3 (BTF3) to form the nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC). This complex binds to nascent proteins that lack a signal peptide motif as they emerge from the ribosome, blocking interaction with the signal recognition particle (SRP) and preventing mistranslocation to the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein is an IgE autoantigen in atopic dermatitis patients. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full length nature of some of these variants, including those encoding very large proteins, has not been determined. There are multiple pseudogenes of this gene on different chromosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
