KIAA0895L

Uncharacterized protein KIAA0895-like also known as LOC653319, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIAA0895L gene.

Gene
KIAA0895L is located at q22.1 on chromosome 16 of the human genome. Its genomic DNA consists of 8,379 base pairs. KIAA0895L is located between EXOC3L and E2F4 on the right, and NOL3 and HSF4 on the left. The promoter for KIAA0895L is located on chromosome 16 and spans 67217367-67218383bp.

KIAA0895L was first documented by the Mammalian Gene Collection Program Team in 2002. There are several patents on KIAA0895L, two of those being patent US 6943241 and patent EP1308459.

Tissue distribution
KIAA0895L is expressed in many tissues of the body such as brain, testis, mammary glands, bladder, and the eye.

Clinical significance
KIAA0895L has been shown to be up regulated in lymphoblastoid cells from males with autism that is caused by an expansion of a CGG repeat in the promoter region of the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene located at Xq27.3 as well as in cells with a 15q11-q13 mutation.
