About NFS1

Cytogenetic location: 20q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:35,668,052-35,699,352 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 16.1), testis (RPKM 12.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Iron-sulfur clusters are required for the function of many cellular enzymes. The proteins encoded by this gene supply inorganic sulfur to these clusters by removing the sulfur from cysteine, creating alanine in the process. This gene uses alternate in-frame translation initiation sites to generate mitochondrial forms and cytoplasmic/nuclear forms. Selection of the alternative initiation sites is determined by the cytosolic pH. The encoded proteins belong to the class-V family of pyridoxal phosphate-dependent aminotransferases. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
