Gene ID: 9741, updated on 27-Aug-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MBNT; Mtrp; LAPTM4; HUMORF13

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that has four predicted transmembrane domains. The function of this gene has not yet been determined; however, studies in the mouse homolog suggest a role in the transport of small molecules across endosomal and lysosomal membranes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
