RHBG - Rh family B glycoprotein Gene
Also Known as SLC42A2
Species: Homo sapiens
About RHBG
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 4.7), ovary (RPKM 3.9) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes one of two non-erythroid members of the Rhesus (Rh) protein family. Non-erythroid Rh protein family members are mainly expressed in the kidney and belong to the methylammonium-ammonium permease/ammonia transporters superfamily. All Rh family proteins are predicted to be transmembrane proteins with 12 membrane spanning domains and intracytoplasmic N- and C-termini. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
