About TMEM127

Cytogenetic location: 2q11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:96,248,514-96,265,997 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 203 orthologues and is associated with 59 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 15.7), esophagus (RPKM 13.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with four predicted transmembrane domains. The protein is associated with a subpopulation of vesicular organelles corresponding to early endosomal structures, with the Golgi, and with lysosomes, and may participate in protein trafficking between these structures. Mutations in this gene and several Other genes cause pheochromocytomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2022]
