Summary

This gene encodes a member of the shisa family. The encoded protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, and together with p53 induces apoptosis in a caspase-dependent manner. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Related pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

Forensic Context

A study in humans demonstrated that the SHISA5 was identified as a high-confidence gene in common between mice and humans within the top 10% of genes related to lifetime alcohol consumption [Farris et al. DOI:10.1038/Mp.2014.159].
