Chromosome 13 open reading frame 16 is a protein in homo sapiens encoded by the C13orf16 gene. There is one alias name, TEX29, for the high testis expression of this gene due to spermatogenesis.
C13orf16 in Homo sapiens is located on the long arm of chromosome 13 at q34. The spliced gene is 859 nucleotides, has 7 exons and is located on the plus strand.
C13orf16 is ubiquitously expressed among human tissues, with significantly higher expression in brain tissues, specifically in the hippocampus and cerebellum.
