TMEM144

TMEM144 is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 17 in humans. It is also known as Transmembrane Protein 144. The gene is involved in various cellular processes and has been linked to certain diseases.

Function[edit]

TMEM144 plays a role in the transport of molecules across cell membranes. It is believed to be involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating cell growth and proliferation.

Structure[edit]

The TMEM144 gene consists of several exons that encode a transmembrane protein. The protein has specific domains that allow it to interact with other molecules within the cell.

Clinical Significance[edit]

Mutations in the TMEM144 gene have been associated with certain genetic disorders. These mutations can disrupt normal cellular functions and lead to disease phenotypes.

Research[edit]

Research on TMEM144 is ongoing to further understand its function and potential therapeutic implications. Studies are focused on elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying its role in cellular processes.
