HPRT gene

The hprt gene is located on the long arm of the X chromosome, it's exact position is at Xq26.1.

The information in a gene is coded as a chain of four letters (A, G, C, and T), which are abbreviations for four corresponding molecules (adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine) residues, in a specific order. Body cells use this information to assemble proteins from amino acids. Proteins form the machinery of a cell, and each protein serves a specific function. See here for more information on what the protein HPRT does.

The following table shows the genetic code for the hprt gene and the amino acid sequence for the protein. Using the genetic code, it is possible to predict the amino acid changes for specific mutations. A detailed list of known mutations is available in the Research section.
