CENPS-CORT Gene Summary [Human]
This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring APITD1 (apoptosis-inducing, TAF9-like domain 1) and CORT (cortistatin) genes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, two of which encode fusion proteins that share sequence identity with the products of each individual gene.

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human CENPS-CORT often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- histone fold domain (HFD) superfamily
- Somatostatin/Cortistatin family
- CENP-S protein
