About TESMIN

Cytogenetic location: 11q13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:68,704,796-68,751,520 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 129 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 13.9), bone marrow (RPKM 1.4) and 2 other tissues.

Summary

Metallothionein proteins are highly conserved low-molecular-weight cysteine-rich proteins that are induced by and bind to heavy metal ions and have no enzymatic activity. They may play a central role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation and are involved in spermatogenesis. This gene encodes a metallothionein-like protein which has been shown to be expressed differentially in mouse testis and ovary. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
