Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Transmembrane protein 50A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMEM50A gene.[5][6][7]
This gene is located in the RH gene locus, between the RHD and RHCE genes. The function of its protein product is unknown; however, its sequence has potential transmembrane domains suggesting that it may be an integral membrane protein. Its position between the RH genes suggests that polymorphisms in this gene may be tightly linked to RH haplotypes and may contribute to selective pressure for or against certain RH haplotypes.[7]
