SYNM - synemin Gene
Also Known as DMN; SYN
Species: Homo sapiens
About SYNM
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 203 orthologues and 68 paralogues. Broad expression in esophagus (RPKM 95.9), prostate (RPKM 82.3) and 15 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is an intermediate filament (IF) family member. IF proteins are cytoskeletal proteins that confer resistance to mechanical stress and are encoded by a dispersed multigene family. This protein has been found to form a linkage between desmin, which is a subunit of the IF network, and the extracellular matrix, and provides an important structural support in muscle. Two alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
