Gene

C5ORF47 is located at 5q35.2.[5] The full gene spans 16,911 nucleotides, and the mRNA transcript, made up of 5 exons, spans 2511 nucleotides.[7]

Gene expression

Human C5ORF47 is primarily expressed in the testis, as well as expressed in low levels in many tissues - stomach, lung, kidney, intestine, heart, and adrenal - in varying levels and times throughout fetal development.[5]

Transcript

The mRNA sequence of C5ORF47 is 2511 nucleotides long and consists of 5 exons and 6 introns[8]

Bird's eye view of human C5ORF47 promoter and gene. The promoter, start of transcription, and exons 1-5 are labeled.[7]

The human C5ORF47 gene has two known isoforms, the first (XP_016864517.1)[9] encodes a protein that is 176 amino acids in length, and the second (XP_011532733.1)[10] encodes a protein that is 150 amino acids in length. This article will primarily focus on the first, more common isoform.

Protein

The molecular weight of the unmodified precursor human C5ORF47 protein is 19.2 kDal, and the isoelectric point is predicted to be 10.49.[11]

The protein is basic and appears to have a relatively high concentration of positively charged amino acids, lysine and arginine, in comparison to negatively charged amino acids, aspartic acid and glutamic acid. The repetitive amino acid structure, “SQLR”, can be found in two locations in the protein.[12]

Domains

The human C5ORF47 protein contains DUF4680, a Domain of Unknown Function, that is characterized by two conserved amino acid sequence motifs: VISRM and ENE.[13]

Structure

Predicted tertiary structure of C5ORF47 protein. The 10 most conserved amino acids are labeled in yellow.[14]

Within the predicted tertiary structure of C5ORF47, the most conserved amino acids fall within the Domain of Unknown Function: DUF4680.

Cellular Localization

The human C5ORF47 protein is predicted to be localized in the nucleus.[15][16]

A stretch of five positively charged lysines, indicating a nuclear localization sequence, can be found at positions 133-137 of the amino acid sequence.[15]

Immunohistochemical staining of human testis from Sigma Aldrich shows moderate nuclear positivity in cells in seminiferous ducts of the testes.[17]

Post-Translational Modifications

Predicted phosphorylation sites T19, S23, S96, S129, S149, Y158, S168, S169, and O-linked glycosylation sites S96, S105, and S168 are conserved among most mammalian orthologs.[18][19]

Interacting Proteins

Proteins that are predicted to interact with the human C5ORF47 protein tend have characteristics such as testes-specific, pertaining to sperm or spermatogenesis, or related to cilia/flagella formation.[25][26]

Clinical Significance

In a study conducted to identify rare genetic variants contributing to Neuromyelitis optica in Finland, Four missense variants were shared by two patients in C3ORF20, PDZD2, C5ORF47 and ZNF606.[37]

Microarray data shows that human C5ORF47 expression is low in an individual with teratozoospermia, which is characterized by the presence of spermatozoa with abnormal morphology over 85% in sperm.[38][39]

Microarray data shows that human C5ORF47 expression is lower in p63 depleted cells.[40] The p63 protein functions as a transcription factor that helps regulate numerous cell activities, including cell proliferation, cell maintenance, differentiation, cell adhesion, and apoptosis. The p63 protein also plays a critical role in the formation of ectodermal structures in early development. Studies suggest that it also plays essential roles in the development of the limbs, facial features, urinary system, and other organs and tissues.[41]
