About MFGE8

Cytogenetic location: 15q26.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:88,898,683-88,913,379 (from NCBI)

This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 278 orthologues and 35 paralogues. Broad expression in heart (RPKM 68.1), endometrium (RPKM 47.7) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to form multiple protein products. The major encoded protein product, lactadherin, is a membrane glycoprotein that promotes phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. This protein has also been implicated in wound healing, autoimmune disease, and Cancer. Lactadherin can be further processed to form a smaller cleavage product, medin, which comprises the major protein component of aortic medial amyloid (AMA). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
