About C8orf44-SGK3

This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring putative uncharacterized protein C8orf44 (GeneID 56260) and serine/threonine-protein kinase Sgk3 (GeneID 23678) genes on chromosome 8. The read-through transcript produces a protein that shares sequence identity with the downstream gene product. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
