Vernet et al. (1994) cloned HSR1, the human homolog of the mouse Mmr1 gene. HSR1 encodes a deduced 438-amino acid protein with a predicted molecular mass of 43.3 kD. The mouse and human proteins share 93% sequence identity. HSR1 is a putative GTP-binding protein.
Vernet et al. (1994) identified the HSR1 gene in the human major histocompatibility complex class I region on chromosome 6p21, less than 2 kb centromeric to HLA-E (143010), in the same transcriptional orientation. HSR1 is telomeric to HLA-B (142830) and HLA-C (142840).
