TMEM89


Description

The TMEM89 (transmembrane protein 89) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 3.

TMEM89 is a gene located on chromosome 3, spanning 1,011 nucleotides. It has two exons, which are not predicted to be alternatively spliced. The gene is most highly expressed in the testis and at lower levels in other tissues, including the stomach, kidneys, heart, ovaries, thyroid, colon, bone marrow, and adrenal tissues. It is also expressed in fetal tissues and has been observed in cell membranes. TMEM89 is part of the Human Protein Atlas expression cluster 23, which is associated with spermatid flagellum and Golgi organization.

The TMEM89 gene encodes a transmembrane protein that is most highly expressed in the testis. It is also found at lower levels in other tissues such as the stomach, kidneys, heart, ovaries, thyroid, colon, bone marrow, and adrenal tissues. Additionally, it is expressed in fetal heart, stomach, kidney, and intestine tissues. Immunohistochemistry has identified TMEM89 in the cell membranes of colon, fallopian tube, kidney, and testis tissues. Low levels of expression have also been observed in mouse cerebellum brain tissue. TMEM89 is part of the Human Protein Atlas expression cluster 23: SpermatidS - Flagellum & Golgi organization.

TMEM89 is also known as -.
