Detailed Document
Overview of Gene Research
Gfy, a gene that has been associated with various biological aspects.
In deer mice, it is among candidate genes related to olfaction, potentially playing a role in predator-recognition traits at the molecular level [2].
In the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, genes of five proteins belonging to the GPR1/FUN34/YaaH (GFY) superfamily were observed to have increased expression upon acetate addition, suggesting a possible role as intracellular membrane acetate channels [3].
Also, in a study on early-onset coronary artery disease in a Japanese population, Gfy was among 21 newly identified genes significantly associated with the disease [1].
No knockout (KO) or conditional knockout (CKO) mouse model-related information was found in the provided references.
In conclusion, Gfy seems to be involved in diverse biological functions such as olfaction in animals, acetate-related metabolism in microalgae, and potentially in the susceptibility to early-onset coronary artery disease. Although no KO/CKO mouse model data is available from these references, understanding Gfy's functions could provide insights into related biological processes and disease mechanisms.
