Gene: CMTM6

Alternate names for this Gene: CKLFSF6|PRO2219

Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the chemokine-like factor gene superfamily, a novel family that is similar to the chemokine and transmembrane 4 superfamilies. This gene is one of several chemokine-like factor genes located in a cluster on chromosome 3. This gene is widely expressed in many tissues, but the exact function of the encoded protein is unknown.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3p22.3

Description of this Gene: CKLF like MARVEL transmembrane domain containing 6

Type of Gene: protein-coding
