Gene: [01p/BRDT] bromodomain-containing, testis-specific protein;


SUM

[1] The bromodomain is a motif of 59 to 63 amino acids thought to be involved in protein-protein interaction. It is found in proteins that regulate transcription. Northern analysis of 16 normal tissues and 8 cancer cell lines showed BRDT transcripts of 3.5 and 4.0 kb expressed specifically in testis. PCR analysis of a panel of monochromosomal human/rodent hybrid cell lines and a Genebridge4 panel of radiation hybrids localized the gene to 1p (Jones-1997).
[2] A study of cDNA clones indicated that the gene encodes a protein of 947 amino acids with extensive homology to RING3 and to the Drosophila developmental gene fsh (Jones-1997)."
