Source: NCBI Gene (ID 57127)
Symbol: RHBG
Full name: Rh family B glycoprotein
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: SLC42A2
Summary: This gene encodes one of two non-erythroid members of the Rhesus (Rh) protein family. Non-erythroid Rh protein family members are mainly expressed in the kidney and belong to the methylammonium-ammonium permease/ammonia transporters superfamily. All Rh family proteins are predicted to be transmembrane proteins with 12 membrane spanning domains and intracytoplasmic N- and C-termini. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
