Family with sequence similarity 134, member c; fam134c

DESCRIPTION

FAM134C is regulated by NRF1 (600879) and is involved in neurite outgrowth (Wang et al., 2013).

CLONING

Wang et al. (2013) stated that FAM134C is highly expressed in the nervous system. In primary rat hippocampal neurons, Fam134c was predominantly expressed in the axon hillock.

GENE FUNCTION

Wang et al. (2013) found that NRF1 increased FAM134C promoter activity in human neuroblastoma cells and primary rat cortical neurons. They identified an NRF1 response element 170 to 159 bp upstream of the FAM134C transcription start site, and the site was 100% conserved in mouse. Treatment of human neuroblastoma cells with short hairpin RNA to FAM134C decreased neurite outgrowth, whereas overexpression of FAM134C increased outgrowth. Wang et al. (2013) concluded that FAM134C is downstream of NRF1 and increases neurite outgrowth.

MAPPING

Gross (2015) mapped the FAM134C gene to chromosome 17q21.2 based on an alignment of the FAM134C sequence (GenBank GENBANK BC049370) with the genomic sequence (GRCh38). ... More on the omim web site
