The nov gene encodes a cysteine-rich protein that is overexpressed in avian nephroblastomas. It is a member of the CCN family of proteins, all of which are involved in cell growth. Genomic and cDNA clones encompassing the mouse nov gene have been isolated and characterized. The mouse nov gene is highly conserved with the human and chick nov genes at the level of nucleotide sequence and genomic organization. The exon structure reflects the modular organization of the NOV protein in a number of structural domains. These are highly conserved with other members of the CCN family, as is the distribution of 38 of its 40 cysteine residues. The nov gene maps to chromosome 15, between D15 Mit 153 and D15 Mit 183, in a region of conserved synteny with human chromosome 8.

D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

The parent organisms must be genetically compatible and may be from different varieties or closely related species. Cross, Genetic,Genetic Cross,Genetic Crosses
D005810 Multigene Family A set of genes descended by duplication and variation from some ancestral gene. Such genes may be clustered together on the same chromosome or dispersed on different chromosomes. Examples of multigene families include those that encode the hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, histocompatibility antigens, actins, tubulins, keratins, collagens, heat shock proteins, salivary glue proteins, chorion proteins, cuticle proteins, yolk proteins, and phaseolins, as well as histones, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA genes. The latter three are examples of reiterated genes, where hundreds of identical genes are present in a tandem array.
