Summary | This intronless gene is similar to the multi-exon peroxiredoxin 6 gene located on chromosome 1. It is transcribed and the ORF is intact compared to that of the peroxiredoxin 6 gene. This gene could be considered a transcribed pseudogene based on a failure to detect the protein in vivo in PMID:14644414. However, NCBI is representing the protein due to mass spectrometry data in PMID:18614015, which detected at least one peptide that is specific for this protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]. |
