Exons make up 0.9 kb of the gene's 4 kb; 648 of those bases code for the protein.

How a genome test reads CSNK2B

55

positions in CSNK2B where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic

55 of them (100%) fall in regions short reads find hard.

  • MHC (55 sites)The major histocompatibility complex (HLA genes), highly polymorphic and poorly represented by a single reference.

A whole genome covers all 4 kb of CSNK2B, introns included, not only the 0.9 kb of exons.

Where this comes from

  • HGNC: the gene's symbol, name, other symbols and location.
  • MANE Select v1.5, from NCBI and EMBL-EBI: the transcript, its exons and coding sequence.
  • ClinVar and the GIAB stratifications: known disease-causing sites, and the regions short reads find hard.
  • The Human Phenotype Ontology, release 2026-09-01: the traits linked to the gene. Find out more at hpo.jax.org.
