GOLGA6: Lysates

GOLGA6 is a member of the golgin family of proteins, whose members localise to the Golgi appartus. This gene is found in a large, low copy repeat sequence or duplicon that is found in multiple copies, that are greater than 90% similar, on chromosome 15. Duplicons are associated with deletions, inversions and other chromosome rearrangements that underlie genomic disease. The protein encoded by this gene is thought to be a functional golgin protein while the majority of the related copies of this gene are thought to be transcribed pseudogenes.
