LRTOMT leucine rich transmembrane and O-methyltransferase domain containing

Gene ID: 220074, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TOMT; DFNB63; LRRC51; CFAP111; LRRC51-TOMT

Summary

This locus represents naturally occurring readthrough transcription between the neighboring LRRC51 (leucine-rich repeat containing 51) and TOMT (transmembrane O-methyltransferase) genes on chromosome 11. The readthrough transcript encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product. Multiple reports implicate mutations in this gene in nonsyndromic deafness.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2021]
