INSL6 - insulin like 6 Gene
Also Known as RIF1
Species: Homo sapiens
About INSL6
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 96 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 6.0).
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene contains a classical signature of the Insulin superfamily and is significantly similar to relaxin and relaxin-like factor. This gene is preferentially expressed in testis. Its expression in testis is restricted to interstitial cells surrounding seminiferous tubules, which suggests a role in sperm development and fertilization. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
