Gene information for TIGD5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID84948
Official gene symbolTIGD5
Full nametigger transposable element derived 5
Aliases,FLJ14926,MGC44883,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the tigger subfamily of the pogo superfamily of DNA-mediated transposons in humans. These proteins are related to DNA transposons found in fungi and nematodes, and more distantly to the Tc1 and mariner transposases. They are also very similar to the major mammalian centromere protein B. The exact function of this gene is not known. [provided by RefSeq]
