Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: G5; BAT4; D6S54E; ANKRD59; GPATCH10

Summary

This gene is located in a cluster of HLA-B-associated transcripts, which is included in the human major histocompatability complex III region. This gene encodes a protein which is thought to play a role in immunity. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
