PIGR - polymeric immunoglobulin receptor Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About PIGR
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]
