Cardiac-enriched FHL2-interacting protein (CEFIP) is a protein encoded by the gene C10orf71 on chromosome 10 open reading frame 71.[1][2] It is primarily understood that this gene is moderately expressed in muscle tissue and cardiac tissue.[3][4]
Gene
editThe cytogenic locus is found at 10q11.23.[1] C10orf71 encodes 28294 base pairs (bp) within chromosome 10 at 49299193-49327487 bp.[1] It is located on the plus strand and is flanked by several other genes.[1]
mRNA
editThe mRNA sequence of C10orf71 has 3 exons and 10 stop codons in the favorable splice form.[1][6] The two alternative splice forms had 47 and 75 stop codons interspersed throughout the sequence so they were not utilized to obtain further sequence information. The main splice form that was analyzed had the ten stop codons interspersed throughout the 5' and 3' UTR, which was why this splice form was utilized to further analyze. The mRNA of the Homo sapiens ortholog of C10orf71was 5286 bp in length.[1][6]
Splice 1 | Stop Codons found starting at bp: 4, 150, 247, 310, 4645, 4774, 4783, 4855, 4986, and 5250
Exons found between bp: 431/432, 544/545, and 5285/5286 Kozak site found at bp 332-334 |
Splice 2 | 47 Stop Codons found interspersed throughout the entire sequence |
Splice 3 | 75 stop codons found interspersed throughout the entire sequence |
The three alternative splice forms found of C10orf71 mRNA sequence and the locations stop codons, exons and the Kozak site found in Splice 1. Splice 1 was utilized to analyze and obtain information about as all of the stop codons found in this splice form were found in the 5' and 3' UTR regions of the sequence. There were three exons found in Splice 1 with a Kozak consensus sequence in the overall sequence as well.[1][6]
Protein
editThe mature Homo sapiens homolog of the CEFIP protein encoded by C10orf71 is 1435 amino acids (aa) in length and weighs approximately 156.5 kDa.[6] This homolog has an isoelectric point of 5.94.[6] The range of pH values from Homo sapiens to the latest ortholog analyzed, Rhincodon types, ranged from 5.94-6.93, with it gradually increasing as it went later in the divergence of the ortholog.[6]
Species | Length (aa) | Molecular Weight (kDa) | Isoelectric point |
---|---|---|---|
Homo sapiens | 1,435 | 156.5 | 5.94 |
Gorilla gorilla | 1,435 | 156.2 | 5.91 |
Mus muculus | 1,412 | 154.5 | 5.81 |
Gallus gallus | 1,521 | 167.7 | 6.15 |
Rhincodon typus | 1,253 | 138.8 | 6.93 |
Comparison of some of the orthologs analyzed when compared to Homo sapiens. The orthologs are arranged from species that are most closely related to the Homo sapiens ortholog to least closely related (top to bottom respectively).[6]
Composition of protein
editCEFIP is predicted to be a non-transmembrane, soluble protein.[7] It is predicted to be a nuclear protein with 91.3% confidence with it being fairly confident to be a nuclear protein throughout the orthologs. There was one positive charge cluster found in CEFIP protein sequence, that is located from amino acids 1165–1193.[6] This cluster was moderately conserved throughout the orthologs analyzed. There was also a mixed charge cluster found in the Homo sapiens' sequence of this protein, located from amino acid 750–778, although this cluster was not highly conserved throughout the analyzed orthologs.[6] There was one repeat sequence found as well, TASKPPA, located at amino acids 163-169 and 116–1172. This protein is Proline and Serine rich as well.[6]
Species | Nuclear | Cytoplasmic | Cytoskeletal |

Homo sapiens | 91.3% | 4.3% | 4.3% |
Gorilla gorilla | 91.3% | 4.3% | 4.3% |

Gallus gallus | 69.6% | 17.4% | 4.3% |
Rhincodon typus | 69.6% | 21.7% | — |
Domains and motifs
editOne confirmed domain of unknown function (DUF) was found within the CEFIP protein sequence, DUF4585.[1] DUF4585 is located on the Homo sapiens protein sequence from amino acid 311–334. DUF4585 was highly conserved throughout the orthologs that were analyzed. There was also a small vacuolar targeting motif (VAC) found within the analyzed protein sequence spanning amino acids 543–546.
Protein structure
editThe mature CEFIP protein contains nuclear localization signals (NLS), pat4 (RKPK at aa 382, RPRK at aa 640, KRRK at aa 1190) and pat7 (PPWRKPK at aa 379 and PWRKPKT at aa 380) with an NLS score of 0.94. A secondary structure was constructed with a 6.1% confidence level.[7]
Post-translational modifications
editThere were seven GlcNAc O-glycosylation sites predicted within the protein sequence found at amino acids 116, 120, 139, 165, 468, 470, and 844.[7] There were also several phosphorylation sites found interspersed throughout the sequence. One propeptide cleavage site was predicted at amino acid 38.[7] There were three predicted sumoylation sites found at amino acids 599, 890, and 1176.
Expression
editThe C10orf71 mRNA was found to be highly expressed in cardiac, muscle, and liver tissue (biology).[1]
Regulation of expression
editThere were 6 possible promoters found in the sequence. Promoter GXP_6729162 is 1403 bp in length.[9] This promoter had several transcription factors of interest including those involved with myocytes.[9]
Function
editThere is little scientific information known about the function of CEFIP.
Interacting proteins
editThere was a total of 25 proteins generated that were predicted to interact with CEFIP (Homo sapiens ortholog).[10][11] Most of the interactions predicted were physical interactions with CEFIP.[10] These interactions were discovered through a variety of mechanisms including, but not limited to: affinity chromatography, microarray analysis, and tandem mass spectrometry among others.[10][11] Refer to table for details about the interacting proteins of CEFIP.[12]
