Gene details
- HGNC symbol
- ATP5J2-PTCD1
- Aliases
- Common name
- ATP5J2-PTCD1 readthrough
- Description
- This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the ATP5J2 (ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial Fo complex, subunit F2) and PTCD1 (pentatricopeptide repeat domain 1) genes on chromosome 7. The read-through transcript encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

- Study Design
- Genome-wide association study in 403 unrelated nonagenarians from long-living families and 1670 younger controls. Strongest candidates were then investigated in a meta-analysis of 4149 nonagenarian cases and 7582 younger controls.
- Conclusions
- No SNP reached significance in the GWAS but 62 SNPs, many in genes, had an indicative association with survival into old age. Of these 62 SNPs then studied in the meta-analysis, 61 were not significant.
