Also known as flotillin 1

Flotillin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLOT1 gene.

Gene data

FLOT1

Name: flotillin 1
Type: protein-coding

This gene encodes an protein that localizes to the caveolae, which are small domains on the inner cell membranes. This protein plays a role in vesicle trafficking and cell morphology. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016].

Flotillin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLOT1 gene.

Caveolae are small domains on the inner cell membrane involved in vesicular trafficking and signal transduction. FLOT1 encodes a caveolae-associated, integral membrane protein. The function of flotillin 1 has not been determined.
