HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: AKAP17A
Cytogenetic location: Yp11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): Y:1,591,604-1,602,520 (from NCBI)
AKAP17A is a pseudoautosomal gene that encodes an alternative splicing regulator (Ellison et al. (1992); Mangs et al., 2006).
See 312095 for further information on AKAP17A.
Ellison et al. (1992) identified the AKAP17A gene within the Xp-Yp pseudoautosomal region.
Gross (2014) mapped identical copies of the AKAP17A gene to chromosomes Xp22.33 and Yp11.32 based on an alignment of the AKAP17A sequence (GenBank BC028151) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37).
