Chromosome 16 open reading frame 46 is a protein of yet to be determined function in Homo sapiens. It is encoded by the C16orf46 gene with NCBI accession number of NM_001100873. It is a protein-coding gene with an overlapping locus.[2]
Gene
[edit]An alternative name for this gene is FLJ32702, however it is most commonly referred to as C16orf46.[3]
Location
[edit]The C16orf26 gene is found on chromosome 16q23.2 negative strand.[4] The promoter region is 1152 base pairs long.[5] It has three exons, one from 1-380 bp, the second from 381 to 1254 bp, and the third from 1255 to 1982 bp.[2]
Expression
[edit]C16orf46 is broadly expressed in the testis and thyroid as well as 18 other tissues.[4] These tissue expression patterns are found to be low to moderate (25-50%).[6] When looking at tissue profiles, the highest expression is in the adult mammalian kidney, liver, prefrontal cortex, cerebellum, heart, and brain.[7]

Protein Analysis
[edit]The full C16orf46 protein is 417 amino acids long.[9] It has no isoforms, and its most distant ortholog, Rhincodon typus (whale shark), also has no known isoforms.[10] The molecular weight was found to be 45.8 kdal.[11] The isoelectric point is 7.4, average for all proteins, and C16orf46 is electrically neutral.[12]
C16orf46 is predicted to be found in the nucleus by all orthologs.[13]
The secondary structure of C16orf46 has alternating alpha helices and beta sheets.[14]
Protein Level Regulation
[edit]In C16orf46, there is N-linked glycosylation, O-linked glycosylation, and SUMOylation.[15][16]
There are phosphorylation sites found with the kinases CKII, CKI, PKC, and cdc2.[17]
A coronavirus cleavage site is predicted at the 235 amino acid position.[18] There are also tyrosine motif locations between amino acids 42-45 and 251–252.[19]
Transcript Level Regulation
[edit]mRNA folding on the 5' UTR predicts a stem loop twice in the area between base pairs 47–90.[20]
Homologs
[edit]Orthologs
[edit]C16orf46 has over 50 orthologs ranging from primate to chordate.[21] The table below shows a representation of the diversity of C16orf46 by listing a selection of orthologs found using NCBI. When C16orf46 Homo sapiens was run through a multiple alignment sequence program, Clustal Omega, against 20 true orthologs and 16 distant orthologs, Trp74 and Pro212 were found to be conserved in all.[22]

Paralogs
[edit]C16orf46 has no known paralogs.[21]
Mutations
[edit]C16orf46 has been compared against Fibrinogen, a protein which mutates rapidly, and Cytochrome C, a protein which mutates slowly.
As can be seen below, when multiple species of the three proteins were plotted, C16orf46 more closely resembled that of Fibrinogen than Cytochrome C, suggesting a possible rapid mutation.[21]

Interacting Proteins
[edit]C16orf46 interacts with FAT3 which has been linked to neurite interactions during development.[23] C16orf46 is thought to have coexpression with the PLAC8L1 and CFAP43 gene, both of unknown function.[24]
Clinical Significance
[edit]There are higher levels of C16orf46 expression in pancreatic adenocarcinoma tumor epithelia tissue compared to the control.[25] There is also higher gene expression in patients with small-cell carcinoma compared to the control.[26]
