bA548K23.1, Hypothetical protein LOC414157, MERIT40, chromosome 10 open reading frame 62, NBA1, Uncharacterized protein C10orf62, CJ062_HUMAN .
C10orf62 is a 223 amino acid protein encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 10q24.1. Spanning nearly 135 million base pairs, chromosome 10 makes up approximately 4.5% of total DNA in cells and encodes nearly 1,200 genes. Several protein-coding genes, including those that encode for chemokines, cadherins, excision repair proteins, early growth response factors (Egrs) and fibroblast growth receptors (FGFRs), are located on chromosome 10. Defects in some of the genes that map to chromosome 10 are associated with Charcot-Marie Tooth disease, Jackson-Weiss syndrome, Usher syndrome, nonsyndromatic deafness, Wolman?s syndrome, Cowden syndrome, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 and porphyria.
