Homo sapiens

Also known as MTf; MFI2; MTF1; CD228; MAP97

Gene ID: 4241 | Gene type: protein coding

About MELTF

Cytogenetic location: 3q29 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:197,001,740-197,029,817 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in salivary gland (RPKM 9.5), kidney (RPKM 5.4) and 16 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a cell-surface glycoprotein found on melanoma cells. The protein shares sequence similarity and iron-binding properties with members of the transferrin superfamily. The importance of the iron binding function has not yet been identified. This gene resides in the same region of chromosome 3 as members of the transferrin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
