FAM50B family with sequence similarity 50 member B [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 26240)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 26240)
Symbol: FAM50B
Full name: family with sequence similarity 50 member B
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: D6S2654E; X5L
Summary: This gene contains an intronless ORF that arose from ancestral retroposition. The encoded protein is related to a plant protein that plays a role in the circadian clock. This gene is adjacent to a differentially methylated region (DMR) and is imprinted and paternally expressed in many tissues. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 6.3), testis (RPKM 5.1) and 25 other tissues
Orthologs: mouse
Gene size: 19424bp
Exon count: 4
