Nomenclature updates

11/06/2018 Human name has changed for Entrez Gene: 8468. From FK506 binding protein 6 to FKBP prolyl isomerase 6


10.15.2020 Human name has changed for Entrez Gene: 8468. From FKBP prolyl isomerase 6 to FKBP prolyl isomerase family member 6 (inactive) ( gene symbol unchanged)

Xenopus name has changed for XB-GENEPAGE942471, from From FKBP prolyl isomerase 6 to FKBP prolyl isomerase family member

Note: checking with HGNC to see if this gene is inactive in human and other vertebrates or just primates/humans.

summary for human FKBP6 from NCBI

The protein encoded by this gene is a cis-trans peptidyl-prolyl isomerase that may function in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. This gene is located in a chromosomal region that is deleted in Williams-Beuren syndrome. Defects in this gene may cause male infertility. There are multiple pseudogenes for this gene located nearby on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
