Human Gene CFC1 (ENST00000259216.6) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens cripto, FRL-1, cryptic family 1 (CFC1), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_032545) RefSeq Summary (NM_032545): This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF)- Cripto, Frl-1, and Cryptic (CFC) family, which are involved in signalling during embryonic development. Proteins in this family share a variant EGF-like motif, a conserved cysteine-rich domain, and a C-terminal hydrophobic region. The protein encoded by this gene is necessary for patterning the left-right embryonic axis. Mutations in this gene are associated with defects in organ development, including autosomal visceral heterotaxy and congenital heart disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000259216.6 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000136698.10 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr2:130,592,165-130,599,575 Size: 7,411 Total Exon Count: 6 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr2:130,592,877-130,599,287 Size: 6,411 Coding Exon Count: 6
ID:CFC1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Cryptic protein; AltName: Full=Cryptic family protein 1; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: NODAL coreceptor involved in the correct establishment of the left-right axis. May play a role in mesoderm and/or neural patterning during gastrulation. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor. Secreted. Note=Does not exhibit a typical GPI-signal sequence. The C-ter hydrophilic extension of the GPI-signal sequence reduces the efficiency of processing and could lead to the production of an secreted unprocessed form. This extension is found only in primates. PTM: N-glycosylated (By similarity). DISEASE: Defects in CFC1 are the cause of visceral heterotaxy autosomal type 2 (HTX2) [MIM:605376]. A form of visceral heterotaxy, a complex disorder due to disruption of the normal left-right asymmetry of the thoracoabdominal organs. It results in an abnormal arrangement of visceral organs, and a wide variety of congenital defects including cardiac malformations and situs inversus or situs ambiguus. DISEASE: Defects in CFC1 are a cause of transposition of the great arteries dextro-looped type 2 (DTGA2) [MIM:613853]. A congenital heart defect consisting of complete inversion of the great vessels, so that the aorta incorrectly arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery incorrectly arises from the left ventricle. This creates completely separate pulmonary and systemic circulatory systems, an arrangement that is incompatible with life. Patients often have atrial and/or ventricular septal defects or other types of shunting that allow some mixing between the circulations in order to support life minimally, but surgical intervention is always required. DISEASE: Defects in CFC1 are a cause of conotruncal heart malformations (CTHM) [MIM:217095]. CTHM consist of cardiac outflow tract defects, such as tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, double-outlet right ventricle, truncus arteriosus communis, and aortic arch anomalies. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 EGF-like domain. CAUTION: This gene differs from CFC1B by only one residue at position 78:R -> W. R78W is also thought to be a CFC1 polymorphism which has been shown to lead to a different cell surface distribution and activity (PubMed:11799476 and PubMed:11062482).

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
