About KHNYN

Cytogenetic location: 14q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:24,423,165-24,441,843 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 100 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in stomach (RPKM 18.8), small intestine (RPKM 18.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains a ribonuclease NYN domain and belongs to the N4BP1 family. The protein is a cofactor for the zinc finger Antiviral protein (ZAP protein) which targets viral RNA for degradation and restricts SARS-CoV-2 Infection. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2021]
