TMEM81
Description
The TMEM81 (transmembrane protein 81) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.
TMEM81, also known as HC3107, UNQ2788, KVLA2788, or MGC75217, is located on chromosome 1q32.1. The gene is 1332 base pairs long and encodes a single transcript with one exon. The protein product is 255 amino acids long with a predicted molecular weight of 28.5 kDa and a pI of 8.92. It contains a transmembrane region, an extracellular immunoglobulin domain, and an N-linked glycosylation site. A disulfide bridge is predicted between residues Cys104 and Cys156. The mature form of TMEM81 has a slightly increased valine and decreased methionine composition compared to average proteins.
The function of TMEM81 is not yet fully understood, but it is believed to be a transmembrane protein involved in cellular processes. It contains an extracellular immunoglobulin domain, suggesting potential roles in cell adhesion or signaling.
TMEM81 is also known as HC3107, KVLA2788, UNQ2788.
