HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: DIMT1
Cytogenetic location: 5q12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38) : 5:62,387,254-62,403,905 (from NCBI)
By searching EST databases using S. cerevisiae ORFs, Stanchi et al. (2001) identified DIMT1L, which they called HUSSY5. The deduced 157-amino acid protein shares 57% identity with yeast Dim1.
By radiation hybrid analysis, Stanchi et al. (2001) mapped the DIMT1L gene to chromosome 8p12. However, Gross (2011) mapped the DIMT1L gene to chromosome 5q12.1 based on an alignment of the DIMT1L sequence (GenBank BC010874) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37).
