Thymosin beta-4, Y-chromosomal is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMSB4Y gene.[3][4]

The protein consists (in humans) of 44 amino acids (msdkpgmaei ekfdksklkk tetqeknpls sketieqerq ages) MolWt 4881.[5]

Function

[edit]

This gene lies within the male specific region of chromosome Y. Its homolog on chromosome X (thymosin beta-4) escapes X inactivation and encodes an actin sequestering protein.[4]
