TIGD7, Official Symbol TIGD7provided by HGNC Official Full Name tigger transposable element derived 7provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:18331 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000140993 MIM:612969; AllianceGenome:HGNC:18331 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as Sancho Summary The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the tigger subfamily of the pogo superfamily of DNA-mediated transposons in humans. These proteins are related to DNA transposons found in fungi and nematodes, and more distantly to the Tc1 and mariner transposases. They are also very similar to the major mammalian centromere protein B. The exact function of this gene is not known.
