The protein LSMEM1 encodes in humans is 131 amino acids long[5] and has a molecular weight ranging from 14.2 to 14.5 kDal.
The predicted post-translational modifications to the human LSMEM1 protein are glycation[7] and phosphorylation.
[10] Orthologous proteins exist mainly in mammals, birds, and reptiles.
LSMEM1 is predicted to have a 615 base pair promoter in humans just upstream of its transcriptional start site.
A reconstituted complex experiment detects interactions between purified proteins in vitro.
LSMEM1 expression levels in humans are greatly decreased in septic skeletal muscle.
