Paralemmin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PALM gene.[1][2][3]

This gene encodes a member of the paralemmin protein family. Other members of this family include CAP-23, GAP-43, MARCKS, and MacMARCKS. The product of this gene is a prenylated and palmitoylated phosphoprotein that associates with the cytoplasmic face of plasma membranes and is implicated in plasma membrane dynamics in neurons and other cell types.[1][2] Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined.[3]
