NET-6, also known as TSPAN13 (tetraspanin-13) or TM4SF13 (transmembrane 4 superfamily member 13), is a 204 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein that belongs to the tetraspanin (TM4SF) family. Members of the tetraspanin family are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains and mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth, motility, differentiation, and cancer. Considered molecular facilitators, tetraspanin proteins may regulate vesicle fusion and fission. The gene encoding NET-6 maps to human chromosome 7, which houses over 1,000 genes, comprises nearly 5% of the human genome and has been linked to Osteogenesis imperfecta, Pendred syndrome, Lissencephaly, Citrullinemia and Shwachman-Diamond syndrome.
