Homo sapiens

Also known as HIWI; MIWI; PIWI; CT80.1

Gene ID: 9271 | Gene type: protein coding

About PIWIL1

Cytogenetic location: 12q24.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:130,337,887-130,426,260 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 216 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 57.0).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the PIWI subfamily of Argonaute proteins, evolutionarily conserved proteins containing both PAZ and Piwi motifs that play important roles in stem cell self-renewal, RNA silencing, and translational regulation in diverse organisms. The encoded protein may play a role as an intrinsic regulator of the self-renewal capacity of germline and hematopoietic stem cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
