PDZD2 - PDZ domain containing 2 Gene
Also Known as AIPC; PIN1; PAPIN; PDZK3
Species: Homo sapiens
About PDZD2
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 230 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 15.3), ovary (RPKM 9.0) and 12 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene contains six PDZ domains and shares sequence similarity with pro-interleukin-16 (pro-IL-16). Like pro-IL-16, the encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and is thought to be cleaved by a Caspase to produce a secreted peptide containing two PDZ domains. In addition, this gene is upregulated in primary prostate tumors and may be involved in the early stages of prostate tumorigenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
