{"symbol":"TSPAN1","synonyms":["TM4C","TM4SF"],"name":"tetraspanin 1","description":"The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility.
