Proteins of the DUF866 superfamily are exclusively found in eukaryotic cells. A member of the DUF866 superfamily, C1ORF123, is a human protein found in the open reading frame 123 of chromosome 1. The physiological role of C1ORF123 is yet to be determined.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFC1ORF123 is a human hypothetical protein found in open reading frame 123 of chromosome 1. The protein belongs to the DUF866 protein family comprising eukaryote-conserved proteins with unknown function. Recent proteomic and bioinformatic analyses identified the presence of C1ORF123 in brain, frontal cortex and synapses, as well as its involvement in endocrine function and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), indicating the importance of its biological role.

- P. minus is an aromatic plant valued for its leaves, which are used as a food additive and in perfumes, and contain flavonoids as active ingredients.
- Due to insufficient genomic data, the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway in P. minus remains unclear; hence, the study aimed to identify candidate genes involved in this process.
- Three cDNA libraries were created from P. minus to facilitate large-scale sequencing, leading to the discovery of 11 ESTs linked to the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, with further analysis planned for specific genes via qRT-PCR.
