Gene: STX16-NPEPL1

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring syntaxin 16 (STX16) and aminopeptidase-like 1 (NPEPL1) genes on chromosome 20. The read-through transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and is thus unlikely to produce a protein product.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20q13.32

Description of this Gene: STX16-NPEPL1 readthrough (NMD candidate)

Type of Gene: ncRNA

Gene: NPEPL1

Alternate names for this Gene: bA261P9.2

Gene Summary:

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20q13.32

Description of this Gene: aminopeptidase like 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
