ANKYRIN REPEAT DOMAIN-CONTAINING PROTEIN 37; ANKRD37


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: ANKRD37

Cytogenetic location: 4q35.1     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:185,396,841-185,400,723 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Description

ANKRD37 contains 4 ankyrin (see 612641) repeat domains, which are typically involved in protein-protein interactions and in signaling pathways (Li et al., 2005).


Cloning and Expression

Li et al. (2005) cloned ANKRD37, which they called LRP2BP, from a human fetal brain cDNA library. The deduced 158-amino acid protein has a calculated molecular mass of 16.9 kD and contains 4 ankyrin repeat domains and 5 phosphorylation sites. RT-PCR detected LRP2BP expression mainly in human testis, small intestine, colon, and blood leukocytes. Epitope-tagged LRP2BP localized to both cytoplasm and nucleus of transfected HEK293 cells. ANKRD37 orthologs were identified in chimpanzee, mouse, rat, and frog.


Gene Structure

Li et al. (2005) determined that the ANKRD37 gene contains 5 exons and spans 3.5 kb.


Mapping

By genomic sequence analysis, Li et al. (2005) mapped the LRP2BP gene to chromosome 4q35.


Nomenclature

Although Li et al. (2005) referred to ANKRD37 as LRP2BP, ANKRD37 is distinct from the LRP2BP gene (619020).
