TMC8 - transmembrane channel like 8 Gene
Also Known as EV2; EVER2; EVIN2
Species: Homo sapiens
About TMC8
This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 168 orthologues, 7 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in lymph node (RPKM 30.6), spleen (RPKM 30.0) and 9 other tissues.
Summary
Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is an autosomal recessive dermatosis characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and a high rate of progression to squamous cell carcinoma on sun-exposed skin. EV is caused by mutations in either of two adjacent genes located on chromosome 17q25.3. Both of these genes encode integral membrane proteins that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum and are predicted to form transmembrane channels. This gene encodes a transmembrane channel-like protein with 8 predicted transmembrane domains and 3 leucine zipper motifs. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
