SMIM15


Description

The SMIM15 (small integral membrane protein 15) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 5.

SMIM15 (small integral membrane protein 15) is a protein in humans that is encoded by the SMIM15 gene. It is a transmembrane protein that interacts with PBX4. Deletions where SMIM15 is located have produced mental defects and physical deformities. The gene has been found to have ubiquitous but variable expression in many tissues throughout the body.

== Gene == Small integral membrane protein 15 (SMIM15) is a protein in humans that is encoded by the SMIM15 gene. It has also been known under the aliases C5orf43 and GC05M060454. It is made up of 74 amino acids. It is located at 5q12.1. SMIM15 has 4741 base pairs with three exons

== mRNA == SMIM15 has zero isoforms The 5' UTR region spans 420 bases and the 3' UTR spans 2243 bases.

== Protein == Primary sequence of SMIM15 is: MFDIKAWAEY VVEWAAKDPY GFLTTVILAL TPLFLASAVL SWKLAKMIEA REKEQKKKQK. RQENIAKAKR LKKD Molecular weight of SMIM15 has been found to be 8.6 kdal and it has a pI of 9.82.

SMIM15 is a transmembrane protein that interacts with PBX4. Deletions where SMIM15 is located have been associated with mental defects and physical deformities, suggesting its role in normal development. The gene exhibits ubiquitous but variable expression across various tissues, indicating its potential involvement in diverse cellular processes.

SMIM15 is also known as C5orf43.
