About SOCS6

Cytogenetic location: 18q22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:70,289,045-70,330,199 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in small intestine (RPKM 4.2), colon (RPKM 3.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains a SH2 domain and a CIS homolog domain. The protein thus belongs to the cytokine-induced STAT Inhibitor (CIS), also known as suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) or STAT-induced STAT Inhibitor (SSI), protein family. CIS family members are known to be cytokine-inducible negative regulators of cytokine signaling. The expression of this gene can be induced by GM-CSF and EPO in hematopoietic cells. A high expression level of this gene was found in factor-independent chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and erythroleukemia (HEL) cell lines. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
