ERVFRD-1 - endogenous retrovirus group FRD member 1, envelope Gene

Also Known as envFRD; UNQ6191; ERVFRDE1; GLLL6191; HERV-FRD; HERV-W/FRD

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 405754

Summary

Many different human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) families are expressed in normal placental tissue at high levels, suggesting that HERVs are functionally important in reproduction. This gene is part of a human endogenous retrovirus provirus on chromosome 6 that has inactivating mutations in the gag and pol genes. This gene is the envelope glycoprotein gene which appears to have been selectively preserved. The gene's protein product plays a major role in placental development and trophoblast fusion. The protein has the characteristics of a typical retroviral envelope protein, including a cleavage site that separates the surface (SU) and transmembrane (TM) proteins which form a heterodimer.

Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 15.8) and lung (RPKM 0.4).
