Summary: Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in intracellular iron ion homeostasis; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis and negative regulation of BMP signaling pathway. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; sensory organ; and uterus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in microcytic anemia. Orthologous to human TMPRSS6 (transmembrane serine protease 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression: Biased expression in liver adult (RPKM 178.1) and liver E18 (RPKM 39.2) See more

Data (including data from studies using knockout mice) suggest that Mt2/Tmprss6 suppresses hepcidin expression in hepatocytes independently of Hjv; Mt2/Tmprss6 cleaves Alk2, Alk3, ActRIIA, Bmpr2, Hfe, and, to a lesser extent, Hjv and Tfr2; thus, Mt2/Tmprss6 suppresses hepcidin expression by cleaving multiple components of the hepcidin induction pathway. (Mt2/Tmprss6 = matriptase-2; Hjv = hemojuvelin)

The results provide support for the interaction between TMPRSS6 and hemojuvelin in vivo; they also suggest that hemojuvelin could be cleaved by another as yet unknown protease in the absence of functional TMPRSS6.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
