ST8 Gene

suppression of tumorigenicity 8 (ovarian)

BOK Gene

BCL2-related ovarian killer

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the BCL2 family, members of which form homo- or heterodimers, and act as anti- or proapoptotic regulators that are involved in a wide variety of cellular processes. Studies in rat show that this protein has restricted expression in reproductive tissues, interacts strongly with some antiapoptotic BCL2 proteins, not at all with proapoptotic BCL2 proteins, and induces apoptosis in transfected cells. Thus, this protein represents a proapoptotic member of the BCL2 family. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

OVCA2 Gene

ovarian tumor suppressor candidate 2

Predicted to enable hydrolase activity. Involved in response to retinoic acid. Located in cytoplasm. Biomarker of ovarian cancer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

POF1B Gene

premature ovarian failure, 1B

Premature ovarian failure (POF) is characterized by primary or secondary amenorrhea in women less than 40 years old. Two POF susceptibility regions called `POF1` and `POF2` have been identified by breakpoint mapping of X-autosome translocations. POF1 extends from Xq21-qter while POF2 extends from Xq13.3 to Xq21.1. This gene, POF1B, resides in the POF2 region. This gene is expressed at trace levels in mouse prenatal ovary and is barely detectable or absent from adult ovary, in human and in the mouse respectively. This gene's expression is restricted to epithelia with its highest expression in the epidermis, and oro-pharyngeal and gastro-intestinal tracts. The protein encoded by this gene binds non-muscle actin filaments. The role this gene may play in the etiology of premature ovarian failure remains to be determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ovarian cancer-related protein 1

OVCAS1 Gene

Ovarian cancer, epithelial, susceptibility to

OVAAL Gene

ovarian adenocarcinoma amplified long non-coding RNA

Predicted to enable pre-mRNA branch point binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA branch site recognition. Predicted to be part of U2 snRNP. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

CILD4 Gene

Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 4

PSC Gene

Cholangitis, primary sclerosing

PIFO Gene

primary cilia formation

Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity and enzyme binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of kinase activity. Predicted to be located in ciliary basal body and trans-Golgi network. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

IPOX Gene

Intestinal pseudoobstruction, neuronal, primary idiopathic

PPH2 Gene

primary pulmonary hypertension 2

PLSA1 Gene

Primary lateral sclerosis, adult, 1

MYD88 Gene

myeloid differentiation primary response 88

This gene encodes a cytosolic adapter protein that plays a central role in the innate and adaptive immune response. This protein functions as an essential signal transducer in the interleukin-1 and Toll-like receptor signaling pathways. These pathways regulate that activation of numerous proinflammatory genes. The encoded protein consists of an N-terminal death domain and a C-terminal Toll-interleukin1 receptor domain. Patients with defects in this gene have an increased susceptibility to pyogenic bacterial infections. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

glaucoma 3, primary infantile, B

GLC3C Gene

glaucoma 3, primary congenital, C

HDLCQ14 Gene

LOC102724175 Gene

membrane primary amine oxidase-like

CILD8 Gene

Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 8

PBC3 Gene

Biliary cirrhosis, primary, 3

PBC2 Gene

Biliary cirrhosis, primary, 2

PBC5 Gene

Biliary cirrhosis, primary, 5

PBC4 Gene

Biliary cirrhosis, primary, 4

DPCD Gene

deleted in primary ciliary dyskinesia homolog (mouse)

This gene in mouse encodes a protein that may be involved in the generation and maintenance of ciliated cells. In mouse, expression of this gene increases during ciliated cell differentiation, and disruption of this gene has been linked to primary ciliary dyskinesia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
