Abstract
We report the isolation of a novel human cDNA encoding a putative transmembrane protein, TMC. The predicted protein sequence is highly conserved evolutionarily. The cDNA clone was mapped to human chromosome 11q24-25 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. mRNA expression was observed in all tissues tested with the highest levels in testes and ovary.
