PIGR - polymeric immunoglobulin receptor Gene

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 5284

About PIGR

Cytogenetic location: 1q32.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:206,928,522-206,946,466 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 115 orthologues and 13 paralogues. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 1246.3), colon (RPKM 1042.2) and 5 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded poly-Ig receptor binds polymeric immunoglobulin molecules at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells; the complex is then transported across the cell to be secreted at the apical surface. A significant association was found between immunoglobulin A nephropathy and several SNPs in this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
