TMPRSS6 - transmembrane serine protease 6 Gene
Also Known as MT2; IRIDA
Species: Homo sapiens
About TMPRSS6
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 201 orthologues, 17 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 19.4), stomach (RPKM 1.7) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a type II transmembrane serine proteinase that is found attached to the cell surface. The encoded protein may be involved in matrix remodeling processes in the liver. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
