Table 3 Hugo gene names and gene phylogeny in case of ABC proteins with tandem repeats. If the two ABCA halves had split in evolution and been observed at different genomic loci, the hypothetical gene name would probably have been adapted as HUGO gene name.
Stem | Subfamily level | Subsubfamily level | Subsubsubfamily level | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Example 1: ABCA1, first half, should be ABCA1A | ||||
Gene classification following gene phylogeny | ABC | A | (first half) | 1 |
HUGO gene name | ABC | A | (not recognized) | 1 |
Hypothetical gene name following gene phylogeny | ABC | A | 1 | A |
Example 2: ABCA3, second half, should be ABCA2C | ||||
Gene classification following gene phylogeny | ABC | A | (second half) | 3 |
HUGO gene name | ABC | A | (not recognized) | 3 |
Hypothetical gene name following gene phylogeny | ABC | A | 2 | C |
