Gene: [11q13/FTH1] ferritin, heavy polypeptide 1; [FTHL6 FTH ]
|
GEN |
[1] The gene length is 3 kb. Exons: 4 (114 bp/38 amino acids, 126 bp/42
amino acids, 162 bp/54 amino acids); introns: 3 (1st - 1.65 kb,
between 331st and 332nd base pairs of cDNA; 2nd - 0.256 kb, between
478th and 479th base pairs; 3d - 0.096 kb, between 604th and 605th
base pairs).
[2] The primary translation product consists of 183 amino acid residues." |
|
FUN |
Ferritin is the basic intracellular protein that serves for storage and transport of iron ions." |
|
FAG |
The gene for the light subunit of ferritin is mapped to chr 19 (GEM:19q133/FTL). Two FTL-like sequences are also mapped GEM:20q1/FTLL1, GEM:0Xp2/FTLL2)." |
|
HIS |
The contradictory data on the localization of FTH gene in chrs 1 and 19 (McGill-1984; Caskey-1983) are explained now by the presence of multiple FTH pseudogenes and FTH-like sequences in various chromosomes." |
|
PSG |
A FTH pseudogene and over 10 FTH-like sequences dispersed among various chromosomes are currently mapped: GEM:01p/FTHL1; GEM:01q/FTHL2; GEM:02q3/FTHL3; GEM:03q2/FTHL4; GEM:13q12/FTHL7; GEM:0Xq2/FTHL8; GEM:05^/FTHL10; GEM:08^/FTHL11; GEM:09^/FTHL12; GEM:14^/FTHL13; GEM:17^/FTHL14; GEM:06p1/FTHL15; GEM:11q13/FTHL16; GEM:06p/FTHP1. Two more pseudogenes are registered: GEM:00.0/FTHP2 and GEM:00.0/FTHP3." |
