About NPL

Cytogenetic location: 1q25.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:182,789,773-182,830,384 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 18.1), kidney (RPKM 16.5) and 20 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the N-acetylneuraminate lyase sub-family of (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel enzymes. N-acetylneuraminate lyases regulate cellular concentrations of N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (sialic acid) by mediating the reversible conversion of sialic acid into N-acetylmannosamine and pyruvate. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
