Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 9985

About REC8

Cytogenetic location: 14q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:24,172,080-24,180,923 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 158 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in gall bladder (RPKM 12.4), testis (RPKM 11.2) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the kleisin family of SMC (structural maintenance of chromosome) protein partners. The protein localizes to the axial elements of chromosomes during meiosis in both oocytes and spermatocytes. In the mouse, the homologous protein is a key component of the meiotic cohesion complex, which regulates sister chromatid cohesion and recombination between homologous chromosomes. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
