Chromosome 4 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 4 spans more than 186 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 6 and 6.5 percent of the total DNA in cells.
The chromosome is ~191 megabases in length. 757 protein encoding genes have been identified on this chromosome to date.[2] 211 (27.9%) of these coding sequences currently do not have any experimental evidence at the protein level. 271 appear to be membrane proteins. 54 have been classified as cancer associated proteins.
The following are some of the genes located on chromosome 4:
