Background Information
TMEM27 (also termed collectrin), a 46 kDa type I transmembrane protein, is a homolog of the noncatalytic domain of angiotensin-converting enzyme-related carboxypeptidase (Ace2). Its expression has only been reported in the brush border membrane of the proximal tubules and collecting ducts of the kidney and in the pancreatic b cell (PMID: 11278314, 16330324). Overexpression of TMEM27 in b cells leads to increased proliferation in vitro and increased pancreatic b cell mass in vivo, and also has been reported to augment glucosestimulated INS secretion (GSIS) (PMID: 16330324, 16330323). The abundance of TMEM27 protein in b cells is furthermore regulated by ectodomain cleavage, which leads to two cleavage products, a 25 kDa N-terminal part that is released into the extracellular space (the shed fragment), and a 22 kDa C-terminal fragment (CTF) remaining in the membrane that is rapidly degraded (PMID: 16330324). TMEM27 is an N-glycosylated protein and can form dimers with MW of 64-75 kDa(patent US 20100119489 A1). TMEM27 can be used as a beta cell mass biomarker (PMID: 20386877, 21907142).
