Background Information
Tetraspanin-31 (TSPAN31) belongs to the tetraspanin (TM4SF) family, also known as the transmembrane 4 (TM4) superfamily, which is a family of transmembrane proteins with 33 mammalian members. These proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth, and motility. Tetraspanin-31 is thought to be involved in growth-related cellular processes. The experimentally determined molecular mass of 30 kDa is larger than the calculated molecular mass of 23 kDa, which could be a result of post-translational modifications.
