Also Known as TRICA; TRIC-A
Species: Homo sapiens
About TMEM38A
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 7.4), stomach (RPKM 6.7) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable Potassium Channel activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to caffeine; inorganic cation transmembrane transport; and regulation of cardiac muscle contraction by regulation of the release of sequestered calcium ion. Located in extracellular exosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
