nomenclature changes

20JAN2023

HGNC and NCBIs RefSeq team have recently renamed all ORF genes. The new gene symbols reflect the orthology to the human gene, while starting with a prefix indicating location of the ORF on the Xenopus chromosomes (c#), the 'h#' for the human chromosome then the orf #. (e.g., gene symbol C11orf54 changed to c2h1orf54). Old 'orf' gene symbols are recorded as synonyms.

24APRIL2023

Xenopus followed a human name/symbol update, changing from c12orf63 chromosome 12 open reading frame 63, to cfap54, cilia and flagella associated protein 54

Summary for human CFAP54 from NCBI/AGR

Predicted to be involved in cilium assembly; cilium movement involved in cell motility; and spermatogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within cerebrospinal fluid circulation; motile cilium assembly; and mucociliary clearance. Predicted to be located in axoneme.
