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
Venom Other insects, such as true bugs and many ants, also produce venom. At least one ant species ("Polyrhachis dives") has been shown to use venom topically for the sterilisation of pathogens. There are venomous invertebrates in several phyla, including jellyfish such as the dangerous box jellyfish and sea anemones among the Cnidaria, sea urchins among the Echinodermata, and cone snails and cephalopods including octopuses among the Molluscs. Venom is found in some 200 cartilaginous fishes, including stingrays, sharks, and chimaeras; the catfishes (about 1000 venomous species); and 11 clades of spiny-rayed fishes (Acanthomorpha), containing the scorpionfishes (over 300 species), stonefishes
