The FXYD protein family is a family of small membrane proteins that share a 35-amino acid signature sequence domain beginning with the amino acid sequence PFXYD and containing 7 invariant and 6 highly conserved amino acids. The approved human gene nomenclature for the family is FXYD-domain containing ion transport regulator.It contains at least seven members in mammals. Two other family members that are not obvious orthologs of any identified mammalian FXYD protein exist in zebrafish.
