C16ORF54

Chr 16

chromosome 16 open reading frame 54

Also known as: SAIL

The protein encoded by C16ORF54 is predicted to be a membrane-associated protein, though its specific function remains unclear. Mutations in this gene have not been definitively associated with any recognized human disease or clinical phenotype. The gene shows relatively low constraint against loss-of-function variants, suggesting that complete loss of function may be tolerated.
