Characteristics

Genomic location of C6orf217 and orientation with respect to adjacent AHI1 gene. (a) The purple and green arrows indicate AHI1 and C6orf217 orientation, respectively. Gene structure of AHI1 and C6orf217 are depicted in purple and green vertical lines respectively, indicating exon positions. Yellow circles and their connecting arrows point to the location of significant SNPs (after Bonferroni correction).

C6orf217 is a primate specific gene located on chromosome 6q23 adjacent to AHI1 gene (Abelson Helper Integration Site 1) [2].The two genes appear in opposite orientations and their regulatory upstream regions overlap, which might affect their expression. It consists of 10 exons and has several alternatively splice isoforms but does not seem to encode a functional protein. [1].

Function

C6orf217 encodes a small protein with no known motif and may well function as a regulatory gene either at its mRNA or protein level [1]. In silico studies show that it may function as a regulatory RNA gene, and may be a regulator of an adjacent AHI1 gene or of other genes. Its Suppressive role is observed in many common cancer types including BRCA, LUAD, KIRP and HNSCC [2].

Expression

C6orf217 is expressed in brain, eye, kidney, testis, tongue, pancreas and lung during development as well as in the adult [1]. In a combined group of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder patients, there was increased expression of C6orf217 [2]. Also its expression was significantly downregulated in PTC (papillary thyroid cancer) compared with the level in the adjacent normal tissues [3].
