About TRIM6

Cytogenetic location: 11p15.4 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:5,596,111-5,612,952 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 76 orthologues and 80 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 10.6), testis (RPKM 6.4) and 15 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, B-box type 1 and B-box type 2 domain, and a coiled-coil region. The protein localizes to the nucleus, but its specific function has not been identified. This gene is mapped to chromosome 11p15, where it resides within a TRIM gene cluster. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A read-through transcript from this gene into the downstream TRIM34 gene has also been observed, which results in a fusion product from these neighboring family members.
