FRA10AC1 is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the FRA10AC1gene.[5]
Function
The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear
phosphoprotein of unknown function. The
5' UTR of this gene is part of a
CpG island and contains a tandem CGG repeat region that normally consists of 8-14 repeats but can expand to over 200 repeats. The expanded
allele becomes hyper-
methylated and is not transcribed; however, an expanded repeat region has not been associated with any disease phenotype. This gene is found within the rare FRA10A folate-sensitive fragile site.[5]
