About HEPACAM

Cytogenetic location: 11q24.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:124,919,205-124,936,047 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 266 orthologues, 24 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 47.9), fat (RPKM 15.6) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein that localizes to the cytoplasmic side of the cell membrane. The encoded protein acts as a homodimer and is involved in cell motility and cell-matrix interactions. The expression of this gene is downregulated or undetectable in many Cancer cell lines, so this may be a tumor suppressor gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
