SELENOM - selenoprotein M Gene
Also Known as SELM; SEPM
Species: Homo sapiens
About SELENOM
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 186 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 54.6), endometrium (RPKM 49.8) and 23 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the selenoprotein M/SEP15 family. The exact function of this protein is not known. It is localized in the perinuclear region, is highly expressed in the brain, and may be involved in neurodegenerative disorders. Transgenic mice with targeted deletion of this gene exhibit increased weight gain, suggesting a role for this gene in the regulation of body weight and energy metabolism. This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal.
