Also known as HSPC196, transmembrane protein 138

Transmembrane protein 138 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMEM138 gene.

Gene data

TMEM138
Name
transmembrane protein 138
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
HSPC196

This gene encodes a multi-pass transmembrane protein. Reduced expression of this gene in mouse fibroblasts causes short cilia and failure of ciliogenesis. Expression of this gene is tightly coordinated with expression of the neighboring gene TMEM216. Mutations in this gene are associated with the autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder Joubert Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
