Gene: [22q13/TAKU] thyroid autoantigen, 70kD (antigen Ku; p70; lupus antigen); ATP-dependent DNA helicase II, 70kD;
HIS |
Originally, this gene was erroneously identified (McBride-1987) as the gene for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor (which is now mapped to the long arm of chr 14; see GEM:14q31/TSHR). However, detailed study of the respective cDNA (Chan-1989) revealed that it codes not for TSH receptor but for a poorly studied yet thyroid hormone, autoantigens against which occur in some types of lupus erythematosis (Reeves,Sthoeger-1989). The functions of four other nucleotide sequences, which were found using the same cDNA probe (McBride-1987) and mapped to different chromosomes (GEM:01q/TAKUL1, GEM:08^/TAKUL2; GEM:10^/TAKUL3; GEM:0Xq/TAKUL4), remain unknown." |

[1] An ATP-dependent DNA unwinding enzyme helicase II is a heterodimer
of 70kD and 86kD (GEM:02q35/XRCC5) subunits
(Tuteja-1994).
[2] Ku autoantigen consists of 2 proteins of molecular mass of 70kD and 80kD (GEM:02q35/XRCC5). The p70/p80 complex binds to the folk-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner." |
