C22orf15

C22orf15 is a human gene located on chromosome 22, at position 22q11.21. The name "C22orf15" stands for "chromosome 22 open reading frame 15." This nomenclature indicates that the gene's function was initially unknown and identified based on its open reading frame (ORF) on the chromosome.

As an open reading frame, C22orf15 is a sequence of DNA that has the potential to encode a protein. However, the precise function of the protein encoded by C22orf15 is not fully understood as of this writing. Research efforts are ongoing to characterize its biochemical activity, cellular localization, and potential roles in biological processes.

Information about C22orf15 can be found in various biological databases, including NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), Ensembl, and UniProt. These databases provide information on the gene's sequence, predicted protein structure, expression patterns, and any known interactions with other genes or proteins.

Due to the limited understanding of its function, the significance of C22orf15 in human health and disease remains largely unknown. Further research is needed to determine whether this gene is associated with any specific conditions or plays a role in any particular biological pathways.
