FAM43A Activators
FAM43A, also known as Family with Sequence Similarity 43 Member A, is a protein encoded by the FAM43A gene in humans.The FAM43A gene is conserved in many organisms, suggesting its biological importance, but the precise roles it plays in cellular processes remain largely unknown.The FAM43A protein is reported to be ubiquitously expressed in various tissues, indicating that it may perform broad biological functions. Its name derives from its inclusion in a family of proteins that share sequence similarity, but the overall functions of the FAM43 family have not been fully defined.
Bioinformatic analyses show that the FAM43A protein contains a domain of unknown function (DUF1394). Proteins with DUFs are often targets for functional characterization since they represent potential new areas for exploration in cell biology.While the exact roles of FAM43A in human health and disease are not yet established, studies suggest potential links to cancer. For instance, a few reports suggest that the FAM43A gene may be differentially expressed in certain cancer types, which could imply a role in tumorigenesis or cancer progression. However, these findings require further validation and investigation.
