Background

TMEM106B or Transmembrane protein 106B is a lysosomal type II transmembrane protein which has been identified by a genome-wide association study as a potential risk factor for a neurodegenerative disorder called frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD)(1). The C-terminal luminal domain of TMEM106B undergoes a proteolytic cleavage that forms sarkosyl-insoluble amyloid-like fibrils (residues 120-254) in human brains (2). TMEM106B is ubiquitously expressed, but the function of TMEM106B is almost unknown. TMEM106B is a receptor mediating ACE2-independent SARS-CoV-2 cell entry (3).
