Draft:SMCO2

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Single-pass membrane and coiled-coil domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that is encoded in humans by the SMCO2 gene. A single-pass transmembrane protein is one that spans the membrane once, with one end of the protein exposed to the cytoplasm and the other end exposed to the outside of the cell.
