TMEM101
editTransmembrane protein 101 (TMEM101) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMEM101 gene.[5] The TMEM101 protein has been demonstrated to activate the NF-κB signaling pathway.[6] High levels of expression of TMEM101 have been linked to breast cancer.[7]
Gene
editAliases
editKnown aliases of TMEM101 include Putative NF-Kappa-B-Activating Protein 130, FLJ23987, and MGC4251.[8]
Location
editTMEM101 is located on the minus strand of the long arm of human chromosome 17 at the locus 17q21.31.[5] The gene is 12,758 bp long, and it ranges from position 44,011,188 to position 44,023,946 on chromosome 17.[5] TMEM101 is located between the genes NAGS and LSM12.[5]
Transcript Variants
editNCBI RefSeq contains five mRNA transcript variants for TMEM101.[5] Transcript variants 1, 2, and 3 have been found experimentally, while transcript variants X1 and X2 have been predicted computationally.[5] The last three exons of all five transcript variants are identical. The second exon is identical in transcript variants X1, 2, X2, and 3. The first exon in each transcript variant differs in the 3' UTR.

editThere are two known isoforms of the TMEM101 protein. Isoform a is encoded by transcript variant 1, while isoform b is encoded by transcript variants 2 and 3.[5] Transcript variants X1 and X2 are also predicted to encode isoform b. Isoform b lacks the first 58 amino acids following the N-terminus of isoform a, but the remaining 199 amino acids are identical to isoform a.

---|---|---|---|
Isoform a | NP_115752.1 | 257 | 29 |
Isoform b | NP_001291742.1 | 199 | 22 |
Protein Characteristics
editIsoform a of the TMEM101 protein has a predicted molecular weight of about 29 kDa and a theoretical isoelectric point of about 9.6.[9] In terms of amino acid composition, TMEM101 is relatively rich in the hydrophobic amino acids leucine and tyrosine, and relatively poor in the hydrophilic amino acids asparagine and threonine.[10] It is also relatively poor in the sum of the two negatively charged amino acids, aspartic acid and glutamic acid.[10]

Evolutionary History
editThe most distantly related species to humans that possesses an ortholog of TMEM101 is Trichoplax adhaerens. Given that Ctenophorans do not possess orthologs of TMEM101, it appears that TMEM101 originated in the basal ParaHoxozoa clade after its divergence from Ctenophora approximately 948 million years ago. Based on a molecular clock analysis, the protein sequence of TMEM101 has on average evolved faster than Cytochrome c but slower than Fibrinogen alpha.
Function
editActivation of NF-κB Signaling Pathway
editTMEM101 cDNA transcripts have been demonstrated to activate the transcription of NF-κB controlled genes in human embryonic kidney cells.[6]
Clinical Significance
editTMEM101 has been noted as a biomarker of breast cancer. High expression of TMEM101 is associated with the Luminal molecular subtype of breast cancer.[7] Additionally, high levels of TMEM101 are associated with an increased risk score for the diagnosis of early stage triple-negative breast cancer.[27]
