| Description | This family includes Melanocyte protein PMEL (also known as PMEL-17), Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB (GPNMB) and Transmembrane protein 130, previously described as melanocyte protein PMEL-17-related family. Regarding the highly conserved domain architecture of these family members, including the PKD, KLD and transmembrane (TM) domains, the name was updated and now referred to as PKD- and KLD-Associated Transmembrane (PKAT) protein family [ ]. TMEM130 has been identified as the most ancient paralogue of PMEL and GPNMB.PMEL and GPNMB share overlapping phenotypes and disease associations, such as melanin-based pigmentation, cancer, neurodegenerative disease and glaucoma. |
