GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
LAPTM4A (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
HUMORF13, KIAA0108, LAPTM4, MBNT, Mtrp
Description
Lysosomal protein transmembrane 4 alpha (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene 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]
