TMPRSS6, transmembrane serine protease 6

TMPRSS6, transmembrane serine protease 6

• The protein encoded by this gene is a type II transmembrane serine proteinase that is found attached to the cell surface. The encoded protein may be involved in matrix remodeling processes in the liver. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
