About LEPROT

Cytogenetic location: 1p31.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:65,420,668-65,436,007 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 33.5), kidney (RPKM 30.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

LEPROT is associated with the Golgi complex and endosomes and has a role in cell surface expression of growth hormone receptor (GHR; MIM 600946) and Leptin receptor (OBR, or LEPR; MIM 601007), thereby altering receptor-mediated cell signaling (Couturier et al., 2007 [PubMed 18042720]; Touvier et al., 2009 [PubMed 19907080]).[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010]
