Description

CKLF-CMTM1 is a readthrough transcript that spans the CKLF (chemokine-like factor) and CMTM1 (CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain containing 1) genes on chromosome 16q21. This naturally occurring fusion transcript is predicted to undergo nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and may not produce a stable protein. The individual CKLF and CMTM1 genes encode proteins involved in chemokine signaling and membrane trafficking, respectively. The readthrough transcript is primarily of interest in gene regulation and cancer genomics.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Cancer (general) Potential dysregulation of CKLF/CMTM1 pathways; readthrough may affect transcript stability Limited; inferred from individual gene associations (COSMIC, NCBI)
Inflammatory diseases CKLF is a chemokine-like factor involved in inflammation; readthrough may alter expression Inferred from CKLF function (UniProt, NCBI)

Protein Summary

The CKLF-CMTM1 readthrough transcript is predicted to undergo nonsense-mediated decay and is unlikely to produce a stable, functional protein. The individual CKLF and CMTM1 proteins are involved in chemokine signaling and membrane organization, respectively. No protein product has been experimentally confirmed for this fusion transcript.
