- CT45A2 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens This gene represents one of a cluster of several similar genes located on the q arm of chromosome X. The genes in this cluster encode members of the cancer/testis (CT) family of antigens, and are distinct from other CT antigens. These antigens are thought to be novel therapeutic targets for human cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
- Arl1 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ARL (ADP-ribosylation factor-like) family of proteins, which are structurally related to ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs). ARFs, described as activators of cholera toxin (CT) ADP-ribosyltransferase activity, regulate intracellular vesicular membrane trafficking, and stimulate a phospholipase D (PLD) isoform. Although, ARL proteins were initially thought not to activate CT or PLD, later work showed that they are weak stimulators of PLD and CT in a phospholipid dependent manner. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
- ct [Search on AGR]
Drosophila melanogaster cut (ct) encodes a homeoprotein that functions as a transcriptional factor in many different cells such as wing disc, muscle, oocyte and sense organ cells. It is a regulator of type-specific neuronal identity in the peripheral nervous system. ct is expressed at variable levels in the dendritic arborization (DA) neurons and these levels control the different dendritic morphologies specific for each class of DA neurons.

Mus musculus PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for the variably penetrant curly-tail mutation (ct) show symptoms of cranial or spinal neural tube defects such as curly tails and/or spina bifida; homozygotes with more severe phenotypes display exencephaly and die in utero. Homozygous knockout mice show severe neural tube defects. [provided by MGI curators]
- Mageh1 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens This gene belongs to the non-CT (non cancer/testis) subgroup of the melanoma-associated antigen (MAGE) superfamily. The encoded protein is likely associated with apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, growth inhibition or cell differentiation. The protein may be involved in the atRA (all-trans retinoic acid) signaling through the STAT1-alpha (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1-alpha) pathway. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
- ser-7 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable G protein-coupled serotonin receptor activity and neurotransmitter receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway, coupled to cyclic nucleotide second messenger and chemical synaptic transmission. Located in membrane. Expressed in egg-laying apparatus and pharyngeal neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol use disorder. Is an ortholog of human HTR7 (5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 7).
- XAGE5 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens This gene is a member of the XAGE subfamily, which belongs to the GAGE family. The GAGE genes are expressed in a variety of tumors and in some fetal and reproductive tissues. The protein encoded by this gene shares a sequence similarity with other GAGE/PAGE proteins. Because of the expression pattern and the sequence similarity, this protein also belongs to a family of CT (cancer-testis) antigens. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
- Ccn5 [Search on AGR]
Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the WNT1 inducible signaling pathway (WISP) protein subfamily, which belongs to the connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) family. WNT1 is a member of a family of cysteine-rich, glycosylated signaling proteins that mediate diverse developmental processes. The CTGF family members are characterized by four conserved cysteine-rich domains: insulin-like growth factor-binding domain, von Willebrand factor type C module, thrombospondin domain and C-terminal cystine knot-like (CT) domain. The encoded protein lacks the CT domain which is implicated in dimerization and heparin binding. It is 72% identical to the mouse protein at the amino acid level. This gene may be downstream in the WNT1 signaling pathway that is relevant to malignant transformation. Its expression in colon tumors is reduced while the other two WISP members are overexpressed in colon tumors. It is expressed at high levels in bone tissue, and may play an important role in modulating bone turnover. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
