The full gene is 75,313 bp, with the major isoform of mRNA being 10,697 bp long. The gene is located at 1q21.1. NBPF contains what is known as the DUF1220 repeats. The highly conserved, repeated region is believed to be originated from MGC8902. The NBPF family has been linked to primate evolution.[4] It is assumed to be related to the 1q21.1 deletion syndrome and 1q21.1 duplication syndrome.[5]
Homology
Paralogs of NBPF10 includes other NBPF family members. Orthologs of NBPF10 are found in other primates; distant orthologs are found in bovine, equine, and canine
Functional role
Although NBPF10's function is unknown, there is reason to believe that NBPF10 is an important biomarker for the Odontoblast Phenotype[6]
Gene Neighborhood
Post-translational modification
NBPF10 has extremely low threonine content which may make the protein less susceptible to post-translational modification.[citation needed]
