TMEM261
Transmembrane protein 261 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMEM261 gene located on chromosome 9.[1]TMEM261 is also known as C9ORF123, Chromosome 9 Open Reading Frame 123 and Transmembrane Protein C9orf123.[2]

Gene Features

edit


TMEM261 is located at 9p24.1,its length is 91,891 base pairs (bp) on the reverse strand.[2]Its neighbouring gene is PTPRD located at 9p23-p24.3 also on the reverse strand and encodes protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type delta.[1][2] TMEM261 has 2 exons and 1 intron, and 6 transcript variants; the largest mRNA transcript variant consisting of 742bp with a protein 129 amino acids (aa) in length and 13,500 Daltons (Da) in size, and the smallest coding transcript variant being 381bp with a protein 69aa long and 6,100 Da in size.[3][4]

Protein Features

edit

TMEM261 is a protein of 112aa with a molecular weight of 11,800 Da.[5] The isoelectric is predicted to be 10.2Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page)., whilst its posttranslational modification value is 9.9[4].

Structure

edit
 
Some proteins found to interact with TMEM261

TMEM261 contains a domain of unknown function, DUF4536 (pfam15055), predicted as a helical membrane spanning domain about 45aa (Cys 47- Ser 92) in length with no known domain relationships.[6][7] Two further transmembrane helical domains are predicted of lengths 18aa (Val 52-Ala 69) and 23aa (Pro 81-Ala 102]).Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).[8]There is also a low complexity region spanning 25aa (Thr 14-Ala 39).[9] The tertiary structure for TMEM261 has not yet been determined. However, its secondary structure is mostly composed of coiled-coil regions with beta strands and alpha helices found within the transmembrane and domain of unknown function reigons. The N-terminal region of TMEM261 is composed of a disordered region[10] [11] which contains the low complexity region[9] that is not highly conserved amongst orthologues[12][13].

Modifications

edit

A N-myristoylation domain is shown to be present in most TMEM261 protein variants.[4] Post-translational modifications include myristoylation of the N-terminal Glycine residue (Gly2)[4][14] of the TMEM261 protein as well as phosphorylation of Threonine 31.[15]

Interactions

edit

Proteins shown to interact with TMEM261 include NAAA (protein-protein interaction), QTRT1 (RNA-protein interaction),ZC4H2(DNA-protein interaction)[16] and ZNF454(DNA-protein interaction)[17][18]. It has also shown to interact with APP(protein-protein interaction)[19],ARHGEF38(protein-protein interaction)[20] and HNRNPD(RNA-protein interaction)[21].[22]

 
Tissue expression of TMEM261 showing tissue enriched gene (TEG) expression [23]

Additional transcription factor binding sites (DNA-protein interaction) predicted include one binding site for MEF2C a monocyte-specific enhancement factor that is involved in muscle-cell regulation particularly in the cardiovascular system [2][24] and two binding sites for GATA1 which is a globin transcription factor 1 involved in erythroblast development regulation[25][26]. [27]

Expression

edit

TMEM261 shows ubiquitous expression in humans detected in almost all tissue types[28][29] and shows tissue-enriched gene (TEG) expression when compared to housekeeping gene (HKG) expression[23]. Its highest expression is seen in the heart (overall relative expression 94%) particularly in heart fibroblast cells, thymus (overall relative expression 90%), and thyroid (overall relative expression 93%) particularly in thyroid glandular cells.[23][28]Staining intensity of cancer cells showed intermediate to high expression in breast, colorectal, ovarian, skin, urothelial, head and neck cells. [28].


Function

edit

Currently the function for TMEM261 is unknown. However, gene amplification and rearrangements of its locus have been associated with various cancers including colorectal cancer[30], breast cancer[31] and lymphomas[32][33].

Evolution

Orthologues

edit

The orthologues and homologues of TMEM261 are limited to vertebrates, its oldest homologue dates to that of the cartilaginous fishes[34] which diverged from Homo sapiens 462.5 million years ago [35]. The primary structure of TMEM261 shows higher overall conservation in mammals, however high conservation of the domain of unknown function (DUF4536) to the C-terminus region is seen in all orthologues, including distant homologues. The secondary structure of TMEM261 shows conservation across most orthologues.[12][13]
