C8orf74 Inhibitors

Chromosome 8 open reading frame 74 (C8orf74) is a protein that is encoded by a gene located on chromosome 8 in humans. ORFs are stretches of DNA that contain a sequence of bases that could encode a protein, and they are identified based on their structure – typically starting with a start codon and ending with a stop codon.

Studies of C8orf74 may involve exploring its expression patterns in different tissues, examining its function through overexpression or knockdown experiments in cell cultures, or assessing its involvement in cellular pathways through interaction studies. It may also be investigated in the context of comparative genomics, looking at the conservation of the gene across different species to infer function.
