TMEM116 (Transmembrane Protein 116): TMEM116 is a gene that encodes a transmembrane protein involved in various cellular processes. Although its specific function remains under investigation, TMEM116 is believed to play a role in cellular transport and signalling pathways, including membrane dynamics, vesicle trafficking, and ion channel regulation. Emerging research indicates it may contribute to cellular homeostasis and intracellular communication, and dysregulation of TMEM116 could affect several physiological processes.
