SAA2-SAA4 Gene Summary [Human]

This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring serum amyloid A2 and serum amyloid A4 genes on chromosome 11. The read-through transcript produces a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

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 SAA2-SAA4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
