How NONO 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 2.7 kb of the gene's 17.5 kb; 1,416 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads NONO
19
positions in NONO where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
4 of them (21%) fall in regions short reads find hard.
- Low mappability (4 sites)Regions where 100 bp or 250 bp reads cannot be placed uniquely.
A whole genome covers all 17.5 kb of NONO, introns included, not only the 2.7 kb of exons.
