About EMC8

Cytogenetic location: 16q24.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:85,778,624-85,799,544 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 7.1), testis (RPKM 6.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Contributes to membrane insertase activity. Involved in protein insertion into ER membrane by stop-transfer membrane-anchor sequence and tail-anchored membrane protein insertion into ER membrane. Located in cytosol. Part of EMC complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
