How HNRNPR is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
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 7.8 kb of the gene's 39.6 kb; 1,902 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads HNRNPR
1
position in HNRNPR where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
1 of them (100%) falls in a region short reads find hard.
- Segmental duplications (1 site)Copies of at least 1 kb sharing at least 90% identity with another part of the genome (paralogues, pseudogenes); reads may align to the wrong copy.
A whole genome covers all 39.6 kb of HNRNPR, introns included, not only the 7.8 kb of exons.
