HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: SRRD
Cytogenetic location: 22q12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38) : 22:26,483,877-26,494,658 (from NCBI)
Kedar et al. (1996) used differential display reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR) to identify a partial mRNA, termed HC/HCC by them, that was strongly expressed in the liver of a patient with hemochromatosis (HC; 235200) and in tumor tissue from a subject with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicating HC. The HC/HCC cDNA, encoding a 9.5-kb transcript, consists of 342 amino acid residues. By Northern blot analysis, Kedar et al. (1996) showed that the message of this gene is present at very low levels in normal human liver, and is also expressed in lymphocytes of HC patients and in MOLT-4 human T-lymphoid cells.
Hartz (2010) mapped the SRRD gene to chromosome 22q12.1 based on an alignment of the SRRD sequence (GenBank BC066962) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37).
