Description
MS4A10 (Membrane Spanning 4-Domains A10) is a protein-coding gene belonging to the MS4A family, which includes CD20 (MS4A1) and other tetraspanin-like proteins. The encoded protein is predicted to span the membrane four times and may function in signal transduction, immune regulation, or ion transport. MS4A10 is expressed in various tissues and has been implicated in certain cancers and immune-related conditions.

Mutation functional classification
Loss of Function (LOF)
Frameshift mutations (e.g., c.500_501insA) are predicted to cause loss of function via premature truncation.
Gain of Function (GOF)
No gain-of-function mutations reported.
Dominant Negative (DN)
No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Protein Summary
The MS4A10 protein is a 4-transmembrane domain protein of approximately 25 kDa. It shares structural homology with CD20 and other MS4A family members, suggesting a role in cell surface signaling or ion transport. Expression data indicate moderate levels in lung and spleen, with lower levels in other tissues. Functional studies are limited, but the protein may be involved in immune cell modulation.
