MREG - melanoregulin Gene
Also Known as DSU; WDT2
Species: Homo sapiens
About MREG
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants) and 118 orthologues. Broad expression in esophagus (RPKM 7.4), skin (RPKM 5.3) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Predicted to be involved in melanocyte differentiation; melanosome transport; and phagosome maturation. Predicted to act upstream of or within developmental pigmentation. Predicted to be located in late endosome membrane and melanosome membrane. Predicted to be intrinsic component of organelle membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in melanosome.
