C2orf73 base pairs upstream of "C2orf73". Many of the transcription factors normally regulate processes such as cell development and differentiation, cell death, and the cell cycle. Three proteins have been experimentally determined to interact with C2orf73 through Yeast Two-Hybrid experiments. The function of C2orf73 is currently not well understood by the scientific community or anyone else. There are no paralogs of C2orf73 in the Human genome. Orthologs are found throughout, but are limited to, the phylum Chordata (with a few exceptions in other phyla of the kingdom Animalia, like the "Octopus bimaculoides"). C2orf73 Uncharacterized protein C2orf73 is a protein that in
Nerve net with nerve nets lack a true brain, they have the ability to display complex movements and behaviors. The presence of a nerve net allows an organism belonging to the aforementioned phyla of Cnidaria, Ctenophora, and Echinodermata to have increased fitness as a result of being able to respond to their environment. Developmental neurogenesis of nerve nets is conserved between phyla and has been mainly studied in cnidaria, especially in the model organism Hydra. The following discusses the development of the nerve net in Cnidaria, but the same mechanism for the differentiation of nervous tissue is seen in Ctenophora and Echinodermata.
