CHTF8_ENSG00000168802


Name

CTF8, chromosome transmission fidelity factor 8 homolog (S. cerevisiae)

Synonyms

FLJ20400, DERPC, CTF8 [provided by Ensembl, GRCh37]

Location

chr16:69,151,913-69,166,487 (reverse strand)

Summary

This gene encodes a short protein that forms part of the Ctf18 replication factor C (RFC) complex that occurs in both yeast and mammals. The heteroheptameric RFC complex plays a role in sister chromatid cohesion and may load the replication clamp PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) onto DNA during DNA replication and repair. This gene is ubiquitously expressed and has been shown to have reduced expression in renal and prostate tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Gene Networks

Gene regulatory network (GRN) of the gene in two interaction steps distance for the selected cell types. The network depth can be varied by updating the number in the box of Network Settings. The GRN is based on C3NET algorithm [1]. Each links are the highest association scores for one of the genes of gene pairs. The numbers near the checked boxes refer to the numbers of links contributed by each of the cell types. One can uncheck and remove the links of any of the cell types from the network. The network topology is dynamic and can be re-arranged by pulling a node with a mouse. The solid and dashed lines refer to positive and negative correlations, respectively. Right clicking a node will bring up a menu with additional options. The arrows show the most likely direction of regulation between gene pairs.
