RHCE
Description
The RHCE (Rh blood group CcEe antigens) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.
RHCE refers to the human gene encoding the RhCE protein.
RHCE, as part of the ankyrin-1 complex, contributes to erythrocyte membrane stability and shape. When paired with RHAG, it serves as the primary attachment point for ANK1. It is suspected that RHCE may play a role in ammonium and carbon dioxide transport through its heterotrimer form.
RHCE is also known as CD240CE, RH, RH30A, RHC, RHCe(152N), RHE, RHIXB, RHNA, RHPI, Rh4, RhIVb(J), RhVI, RhVIII, SLC42A4.
