Transmembrane protein
TMEM106C is a gene that encodes the transmembrane protein 106C (TMEM106C) in "Homo sapiens" It has been found to be overexpressed in cancer cells and also is related to distal arthrogryposis, a condition of stiff joints and irregular muscle development. The "TMEM106C" gene contains a domain of unknown function, DUF1356, that spans most of the protein. Transmembrane protein 106C also goes by the aliases "MGC5576 or MGC111210, LOC79022".
