Gene information for TGM5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9333
Official gene symbolTGM5
Full nametransglutaminase 5
Aliases,MGC141907,TGASE5,TGASEX,TGM6,TGMX,TGX,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the transglutaminase family. The encoded protein catalyzes formation of protein cross-links between glutamine and lysine residues, often resulting in stabilization of protein assemblies. This reaction is calcium dependent. Mutations in this gene have been associated with acral peeling skin syndrome. [provided by RefSeq]
