LRRC51 - leucine rich repeat containing 51

This gene belongs to the leucine-rich repeat containing family. The encoded protein contains a transmembrane domain and two leucine-rich repeat domains. Unlike in mouse and other mammals, readthrough transcription is observed in primates between this gene and the adjacent transmembrane O-methyltransferase (Tomt) gene. Previously, this locus was annotated as a single gene representing the readthrough transcripts as well as the two different transcript species that encoded different proteins. It has since been split into three genes, including the two stand-alone genes and a third gene representing the readthrough transcription. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2022]
