Other Information

Description

**Key characteristics:** * C4BPAP2 is a pseudogene, meaning it is not involved in normal human development. * It is significantly expressed in certain cell types, including astrocytes, central nervous system macrophages, pigmented ciliary epithelial cells, GABAergic neurons, ON retinal ganglion cells, ependymal cells, neurons, pigmented epithelial cells, melanocytes, and Schwann cells. * It has been linked to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but its role in this disorder is unknown. **Pathways and functions:** * The protein encoded by C4BPAP2 has not been identified to have any known functions in humans. * However, it is predicted to be involved in cell signaling and regulation. * It has been shown to interact with other genes involved in autism spectrum disorder. **Clinical significance:** * C4BPAP2 is a novel gene that has been linked to autism spectrum disorder. * Further research is needed to understand its role in the disease. * Understanding the function of C4BPAP2 could lead to the development of new treatments for autism spectrum disorder.
