Summary
PARM1 (prostate androgen-regulated mucin-like protein 1, HGNC:24536) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q13.3, encoding Prostate androgen-regulated mucin-like protein 1 (Q6UWI2). May regulate TLP1 expression and telomerase activity, thus enabling certain prostatic cells to resist apoptosis.
Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; endosome; and nucleoplasm.
