Transmembrane protein 89 (TMEM89) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMEM89 gene.
Gene
[edit | edit source]Structure
[edit | edit source]The TMEM89 gene is found on the minus strand of chromosome 3 (3p21.31) from 48,658,192 to 48,659,288 and is 1,011 nucleotides long.[1][2] The gene has two exons.[1][2] These two exons are not predicted to be alternatively spliced.[1][2]
Gene expression
[edit | edit source]The TMEM89 gene is most highly expressed in the testis.[1][2] TMEM89 is also found to be expressed at low levels in other tissues such as the stomach, kidneys, heart, ovaries, thyroid, colon, bone marrow, and in adrenal tissues.[1] This gene is also expressed in fetal heart, stomach, kidney, and intestine tissues.[1] Immunohistochemistry data has also found TMEM89 located in the cell membranes of the colon, fallopian tube, kidney, and testis tissues.[3][4] Expression of the TMEM89 gene has also been found in low amounts in the brain tissue from a mouse cerebellum.[5]
Gene expression neighborhood
[edit | edit source]Human TMEM89 is a part of the Human Protein Atlas expression cluster 23: SpermatidS - Flagellum & Golgi organization.[3][6] The 15 closest expression neighbors include OR4M1, ANTXRL, TGIF2LX, CPXCR1, C3orf84, CXorf66, CLDN17, C11orf94, USP50, SPDYE4, MMP20, SSMEM1, SPMAP1, SPACA1, and LYZL1.[6]
Differential gene expression
[edit | edit source]TMEM89 expression is much higher in amniotic fluid derived hAKPC-P cells compared with immortalized hIPod line cells.[7] TMEM89 expression is higher in cells that have macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) knocked down compared to the control.[8] TMEM89 expression is the lowest in cardiomyocytes from human embryonic stem cells, compared to expression in human embryonic stem cells, embryoid bodies with beating cardiomyocytes, and cardiomyocytes from fetal hearts.[9]
Clinical significance
[edit | edit source]Gene expression of TMEM89 was found to be upregulated in upper tract urothelial carcinomas, and therefore predicted as a possible biomarker secretory protein for these types of carcinomas.[10] The TMEM89 gene was found to be a potential modifier of autism spectrum disorder severity in a SNP analysis.[citation needed] Gene expression of TMEM89 was also used in a model that predicted the risk score for a potential relapse in stage 1 testicular germ cell tumors.[11]
Protein
[edit | edit source]Structure
[edit | edit source]Primary
[edit | edit source]The human TMEM89 protein is 159 amino acids long.[1] This protein has a molecular mass of ~17.5kDa and an isoelectric point of ~10 pI.[2][18] Proteins with a more basic pI are usually associated with the mitochondria or the plasma membrane and have fewer protein interactions.[19][20] The protein structure contains two topological domains (extracellular and cytoplasmic) and a helical transmembrane domain.[13][21][22] The human TMEM89 protein is rich in the amino acids histidine, leucine, and tryptophan.[14] The amino acids aspartate, asparagine, and phenylalanine are present in low amounts in the human TMEM89 protein.[14] Amino acid patterns such as ED are present in the human TMEM89 protein at low amounts, while the pattern KR-ED is present in high amounts.[14] Within the extracellular domain of the human TMEM89 protein, there are 3 cysteines with regular spacing.[14] In the cytoplasmic domain, there are two positive amino acid runs from amino acids 3-5 and 25-27.[14] These different amino acid patterns and protein domains can be visualized in the figures to the right.
Secondary
[edit | edit source]The TMEM89 protein is only made up of α-helices and strands.[23][24] The α-helices are distributed all throughout the protein in all three domains.[23][24]
Tertiary
[edit | edit source]The tertiary structure of Human TMEM89 was predicted using Alphafold and I-Tasser software.[23][24] These structures can be seen on the right.
Post-translational modifications
[edit | edit source]The TMEM89 protein has a predicted N-myristylation site from amino acids 47-52, a predicted Src homology 3 (SH3) binding domain from amino acids 106-111, and one conserved predicted phosphorylation site at amino acid S117.[15][17][16] N-myristylation is a protein lipid modification that has roles in protein-protein interactions, cell signaling, and targeting proteins to endomembranes and the plasma membrane.[26] Proteins with SH3 binding domains are usually involved in signal transduction pathways, cytoskeleton organization, membrane trafficking, or organelle assembly.[27] Protein phosphorylation is an important process involved with signal transduction, protein synthesis, cell division, cell growth, development, and aging.[28]
Interactions
[edit | edit source]The human TMEM89 protein interacts with the proteins C4A, RBM15B, GOLGA6A, PFKFB4, DOCK3, MAPKAPK3, ZNF557, and ZBTB47.[31][32]
Homologs
[edit | edit source]Orthologs
[edit | edit source]Orthologs of TMEM89 are only found in mammals.[1] The only mammalian taxon that does not contain a TMEM89 ortholog is the monotremes.
Below is a table with information on some of the orthologs of human TMEM89. These orthologs were used to make the multiple sequence alignment and N-myristylation site alignment to the right.

Conserved regions
[edit | edit source]Regions within the cytoplasmic and extracellular domains of the human TMEM89 protein seem to be the most conserved, as seen in figures on the right.[30][33] Some of these conserved amino acids are part of α-helices in the cytoplasmic and extracellular regions.[30][33]
