TMEM51

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Transmembrane protein 51 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the TMEM51 gene.[5] It is located on the first chromosome (1p36.21) and has 6 isoforms in humans.[6] It has orthologs in mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.[6]

Pairwise Alignment of Human (Homo sapiens) TMEM51 and Zebrafish (Danio rerio) TMEM51 Amino Acid Sequences

It is predicted to be a transmembrane protein due to the transmembrane regions within its coding sequence.[7]

TMEM51-AS1 (a long non-coding RNA from the TMEM51 locus) acts as a tumor suppressor when overexpressed, inhibiting cancer cell progression.[8] Mutations or polymorphisms of the TMEM51 are associated susceptibility to Reynaud's syndrome.[9]
