GKN2 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Diagnostic Probes & Oligos The testicular form is expressed

The testicular form is expressed in embryonic tissues

including the alpha subunit of the inhibin A and B protein complexes

and is thought to influence neuroblast proliferation

The 5' untranslated region of this gene contains a CGG trinucleotide repeat sequence that normally consists of 7-40 tandem CGG repeats but which can expand to greater than 300 repeats

GKN2 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Diagnostic Probes & Oligos The testicular form is expressedThe secretory protein encoded by this gene is produced in gastric surface mucous cells, where it can bind trefoil factor family peptide 1 or gastrokine 1. This gene may be a tumor suppressor gene, as its expression is markedly decreased in gastric cancer tissues. The encoded protein interacts with gastrokine 1 and regulates homeostasis of the gastric mucosa.
