PRR29 (proline-rich protein 29) is a protein encoded by the PRR29 gene located in humans on chromosome 17 at 17q23.[5][6][7]
Its function is not fully understood. Its name is derived from the chain of 5 proline amino acids located toward the end of the protein. The primary domain within the sequence of this protein is known as DUF4587.[5] It is reported to have high levels of expression in tissues pertaining to the circulatory system and the immune system.[8] It is hypothesized that PRR29 is a nuclear protein that facilitates communication between the nucleus and the mitochondria.
The gene is also commonly known as C17orf72. The gene has a size of 5961 base pairs and contains five exons.[6]
