About EXOG

Cytogenetic location: 3p22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:38,496,340-38,526,303 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 157 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 2.2), lymph node (RPKM 1.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes an endo/exonuclease with 5'-3' exonuclease activity. The encoded Enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester linkages at the 5' end of a nucleic acid chain. This Enzyme is localized to the mitochondria and may play a role in programmed cell death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. A pseudogene exists on chromosome 18.
