Gene: TMEM50A

Alternate names for this Gene: IFNRC|SMP1

Gene Summary: This gene is located in the RH gene locus, between the RHD and RHCE genes. The function of its protein product is unknown; however, its sequence has potential transmembrane domains suggesting that it may be an integral membrane protein. Its position between the RH genes suggests that polymorphisms in this gene may be tightly linked to RH haplotypes and may contribute to selective pressure for or against certain RH haplotypes.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1p36.11

Description of this Gene: transmembrane protein 50A

Type of Gene: protein-coding
