General annotation (Comments)

Function

Unknown. May have a key functions in the regulation of eye, tooth, brain and craniofacial development.

Subcellular location

Nucleus Potential.

Tissue specificity

Detected at low levels in all tissues analyzed. Detected in fetal and adult brain, lens, retina, retinal pigment epithelium, placenta, lymphocytes and fibroblasts. Levels in retinal pigment epithelium, placenta, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts are very low. Expressed also in kidney, lung and thymus. Ref.1 Ref.5

Involvement in disease

Nance-Horan syndrome (NHS) [MIM:302350]: Rare X-linked disorder characterized by congenital cataracts, dental anomalies, dysmorphic features, and, in some cases, mental retardation. Distinctive dental anomalies are seen in affected males, including supernumerary incisors and crown shaped permanent teeth. Characteristic facial features are anteverted pinnae, long face, and prominent nasal bridge and nose. Carrier females display milder variable symptoms of disease with lens opacities often involving the posterior Y sutures, and on occasion dental anomalies and the characteristic facial features described.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Cataract, congenital, X-linked (CXN) [MIM:302200]: A X-linked form of cataract, manifesting as a congenital nuclear opacity with severe visual impairment in affected males. Heterozygous females have suture cataracts and only slight reduction in vision.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Caused by copy number variations predicted to result in altered transcriptional regulation of the NHS gene: a 0.8 Mb segmental duplication-triplication encompassing the NHS, SCML1 and RAI2 genes, and an 4.8 kb intragenic deletion in NHS intron 1. Ref.8

Belongs to the NHS family.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q6T4R5-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q6T4R5-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-177: Missing.
     178-189: LSTLDPKQEAVP → MALACCMPKNAA
     284-284: T → TFNSTRSPSPTECCHMTPWSRK
Isoform 3 (identifier: Q6T4R5-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-178: Missing.
     179-189: STLDPKQEAVP → MDNALFLCLAA
     284-284: T → TFNSTRSPSPTECCHMTPWSRK
