GOLGA6L17P
Description
The GOLGA6L17P (golgin A6 family like 17, pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 15.
This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the golgin family. Golgins are coiled-coil proteins that reside in the Golgi apparatus. They are essential for the proper organization and function of the Golgi, possibly by contributing to vesicle trafficking. This gene is positioned near another gene on chromosome 12 that codes for a golgin family member, suggesting a potential similarity or relationship between the encoded proteins. However, the precise function of this particular protein is not yet fully understood.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the golgin family. Golgins are coiled-coil proteins that are localized to the Golgi apparatus. They are involved in the organization and function of the Golgi and may be involved in vesicle trafficking. This gene is located in the vicinity of a gene coding for a member of the golgin family on chromosome 12, and the encoded protein may be a related or similar protein. However, the specific function of this protein is unknown.
GOLGA6L17P is also known as GOLGA6L21P.
