Gene: [06p21/CDC5L] cell division cycle 5-like (homologous to CDC5 of S.pombe); pombe cell division cycle-5-related protein; [PCDC5RP ]

FUN

The Schizosaccharomyces pombe cdc5 gene is a cell division cycle gene that is essential for the progression of the G2 phase and entry into mitosis. All eukaryotes have cdc5-like genes (Hirayama-1996)."

GEN

The gene length: 50 kb (approximately); exons: 16 (Groenen-1998).

EXP

Northern blot analysis revealed ubiquitous expression of a 3.4-kb mRNA; the protein is normally localized to the nucleus (Bernstein-1997; Groenen-1998)."

ABR

The chromosome 6 breakpoint in a patient with bilateral multicystic renal dysplasia and massive hydronephrosis resides in intron 9 of the CDC5L gene (Groenen-1998) showed that the chromosome 19 gene involved in the translocation is GEM:19q131/USF2 (Groenen-1996)."
