TSPAN3 - tetraspanin 3 Gene
Also Known as TM4-A; TM4SF8; TSPAN-3
Species: Homo sapiens
About TSPAN3
This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 285 orthologues and 32 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 113.6), colon (RPKM 109.2) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. The use of alternate polyadenylation sites has been found for this gene. Multiple alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
