How GRIN2C is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 4.3 kb of the gene's 17.9 kb; 3,702 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads GRIN2C
1
position in GRIN2C where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 17.9 kb of GRIN2C, introns included, not only the 4.3 kb of exons.
