Gene data
FKBP8- Name
- FKBP prolyl isomerase 8
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- FKBP38, FKBPr38
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunophilin protein family, which play a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. Unlike the other members of the family, this encoded protein does not seem to have PPIase/rotamase activity. It may have a role in neurons associated with memory function.
