ID:GLCI1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Glucocorticoid-induced transcript 1 protein; TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Predominantly expressed in lung, spleen, thymus and testis and, at lower levels, in brain, bone marrow, peripheral leukocytes, skin and trachea. POLYMORPHISM: Polymorphisms dbSNP:rs37972 and dbSNP:rs37973, located in GLCCI1 promoter region, are associated with a decreased response to glucorticoid treatment [MIM:614400] in asthma patients (PubMed:21991891), as well as in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (PubMed:22187997). The mean increase in forced expiratory volume in 1 second in glucorticoid treated subjects who are homozygous for the mutant (G) rs37973 allele is only about one-third of that seen in similarly treated subjects who are homozygous for the wild-type allele (A) (PubMed:21991891). These polymorphisms affect GLCCI1 transcription level.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
