PiggyBac transposable element-derived protein 1, Cerebral protein 4, PGBD1
Product description
The piggyBac family of proteins, found in diverse animals,
are transposases related to the transposase of the canonical
piggyBac transposon from the moth, Trichoplusia ni. This family
also includes genes in several genomes, including human, that
appear to have been derived from the piggyBac transposons. This
gene belongs to the subfamily of piggyBac transposable element
derived (PGBD) genes. The PGBD proteins appear to be novel, with no
obvious relationship to other transposases, or other known protein
families. This gene product is specifically expressed in the brain,
however, its exact function is not known. Alternative splicing
results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.1) Li, T., et al. Biol. Psychiatry 68(7):671-673(2010)
