Also known as LAK-4PEVIN1
Summary
TMC6 (transmembrane channel like 6, HGNC:18021) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q25.3, encoding Transmembrane channel-like protein 6 (Q7Z403). Acts as a regulatory protein involved in the regulation of numerous cellular processes.
Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is an autosomal recessive dermatosis characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and a high rate of progression to squamous cell carcinoma on sun-exposed skin. EV is caused by mutations in either of two adjacent genes located on chromosome 17q25.3. Both of these genes encode integral membrane proteins that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum and are predicted to form transmembrane channels. This gene encodes a transmembrane channel-like protein with 10 transmembrane domains and 2 leucine zipper motifs.

Function. Acts as a regulatory protein involved in the regulation of numerous cellular processes. Together with its homolog TMC8/EVER2, forms a complex with CIB1 in lymphocytes and keratynocytes where TMC6 and TMC8 stabilize CIB1 and reciprocally. Together with TMC8, also forms a complex with and activates zinc transporter ZNT1 at the ER membrane of keratynocytes, thereby facilitating zinc uptake into the ER. Down-regulates the activity of transcription factors induced by zinc and cytokines. Also plays a role in thermal sensation by inhibiting the M-channel (KCNQ2-KCNQ3 channel) current in primary sensory neurons.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with TMC8. Interacts and forms a complex with TMC8 and CIB1; the interaction stabilizes each component of the complex. Interacts and forms a complex with TMC8 and SLC30A1/ZNT1; the interaction regulates zinc transport into the ER. (Microbial infection) Interacts with human papillomavirus 16/HPV16 protein E5; the interaction alleviates TMC6-mediated transcription factors inhibition.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Golgi apparatus membrane. Nucleus membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in placenta, prostate, testis, activated T-lymphocytes and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) lymphocytes.
Disease relevance. Epidermodysplasia verruciformis 1 (EV1) [MIM:226400] A form of epidermodysplasia verruciformis, a rare genodermatosis associated with a high risk of skin carcinoma that results from an abnormal susceptibility to infection by specific human papillomaviruses, including the oncogenic HPV5. Infection leads to the early development of disseminated flat wart-like and pityriasis versicolor-like skin lesions. Cutaneous Bowen’s carcinomas in situ and invasive squamous cell carcinomas develop in about half of the patients, mainly on sun-exposed skin areas. EV1 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the TMC family.
