MAP6 - microtubule associated protein 6 Gene
Also Known as STOP; MTAP6; MAP6-N; N-STOP
Species: Homo sapiens
About MAP6
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 267 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 4.6), testis (RPKM 2.8) and 13 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a microtubule-associated protein. The encoded protein is a calmodulin-binding and calmodulin-regulated protein that is involved in microtubule stabilization. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
