C16orf95

C16orf95, also known as Chromosome 16 open reading frame 95, is a human gene. It is located on chromosome 16. The specific function of the protein encoded by this gene is not yet fully understood, and it is therefore often described as a protein of unknown function.

The gene's nomenclature follows standard conventions for human genes, where "C" indicates chromosome, "16" represents the chromosome number, "orf" signifies "open reading frame" (a sequence of DNA that has the potential to encode a protein), and "95" is a sequential identifier.

Predictions based on its amino acid sequence and structural motifs can sometimes suggest potential roles or interactions. However, further experimental research is needed to elucidate its precise biological role and significance in cellular processes.

Studies involving transcriptomic analysis or proteomic surveys may identify patterns of expression for C16orf95 across different tissues or cell types, or under various experimental conditions. Such observations can provide clues about its possible function or involvement in specific biological pathways.

Given the limited understanding of C16orf95, ongoing research is crucial to determine its exact function, its potential involvement in disease, and its interaction with other proteins within the cell. Further research into its structure, expression patterns, and interaction partners will be necessary to fully characterize this gene and its protein product.
