About TJAP1

Cytogenetic location: 6p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:43,477,570-43,506,554 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants) and 85 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 10.1), endometrium (RPKM 8.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a tight junction-associated protein. Incorporation of the encoded protein into tight junctions occurs at a late stage of formation of the junctions. The encoded protein localizes to the Golgi and may function in vesicle trafficking. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. A related pseudogene exists on the X chromosome.
