osteoclast stimulatory transmembrane protein
Alias
C20orf123 | OC-STAMP | dJ257E24.3
The protein encoded by this gene is orthologous to the mouse osteoclast stimulatory transmembrane protein (OCSTAMP), which is a membrane-anchored cell surface receptor that promotes nucleation of osteoclasts. The mouse protein is also involved in bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2017].
