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
Conserved signature indels subgroups within the phylum Thermotogae. Main-line CSIs are those in which a conserved insert or deletion is shared by several major phyla, but absent from other phyla. Figure 2 shows an example of 5aa CSI found in a conserved region that is commonly present in the species belonging to phyla X, Y and Z, but it is absent in other phyla (A, B and C). This signature indicates a specific relationship of taxa X, Y and Z and also A, B and C. Based upon the presence or absence of such an indel, in out-group species (viz. Archaea), it can
