Overlapping ATP2C1 and ASTE1 genes in human genome: implications for SPCA1 expression?
International journal of molecular sciences - 4 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt
The ATP2C1 gene encodes for the secretory pathway calcium (Ca2+)-ATPase pump (SPCA1), which localizes along the secretory pathway, mainly in the trans-Golgi. The loss of one ATP2C1 allele causes Hailey-Hailey disease in humans but not mice. Examining differences in genomic organization between mouse and human we speculate that the overlap between ATP2C1 and ASTE1 genes only in humans could explain this different...
