Background
|
The deduced protein contains an N-terminal SAM domain. Database analysis indicated that SAMD9L can undergo alternative splicing leading to an alternative coding region. PCR analysis detected SAMD9L in all ***** and fetal human tissues examined except some tumor tissues. Orthologs of SAMD9L were detected in all mammals examined but not in chicken, frog, or fish species. Widely expressed in ***** and fetal tissues. Variable expression in tumors. Down-regulated in breast cancer.
Synonyms: UEF1, DRIF2, C7orf6
