Also known as G6fNG32
Summary
LY6G6F (lymphocyte antigen 6 family member G6F, HGNC:13933) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p21.33, encoding Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex locus protein G6f (Q5SQ64). May play a role in the downstream signal transduction pathways involving GRB2 and GRB7.
The human G6f protein is a type I transmembrane protein belonging to the immunoglobin (Ig) superfamily, which is comprised of cell-surface proteins involved in the immune system and cellular recognition (de Vet et al., 2003 [PubMed 12852788]).
