The LCT gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called lactase. This enzyme helps to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Lactase is produced by cells that line the walls of the small intestine.olecular Location on chromosome 2: base pairs 135,787,844 to 135,837,179. The LCT gene is located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 2 at position 21. More precisely, the LCT gene is located from base pair 135,787,844 to base pair 135,837,179 on chromosome 2.
1 Genetic variants of NPAT-ATM and AURKA are associated with an individual early adverse reaction in the gastrointestinal tract of patients with cervical cancer treated with pelvic radiation therapy. 2  NPAT is thus far the first gene implicated in nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma predisposition. NPAT is essential for histone mRNA 3' end processing and recruits CDK9 to replication-dependent histone genes. 2  Cyclin D2 and the CDK substrate p220(NPAT) are required for self-renewal of human embryonic stem cells.
