Gene information for LY6G6C (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID80740
Official gene symbolLY6G6C
Full namelymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus G6C
Aliases,C6orf24,G6c,NG24,
Gene summaryLY6G6C belongs to a cluster of leukocyte antigen-6 (LY6) genes located in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6. Members of the LY6 superfamily typically contain 70 to 80 amino acids, including 8 to 10 cysteines. Most LY6 proteins are attached to the cell surface by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor that is directly involved in signal transduction (Mallya et al., 2002 [PubMed 12079290]).[supplied by OMIM]
