About SPX

Cytogenetic location: 12p12.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:21,526,296-21,532,947 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants) and 180 orthologues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 72.3), thyroid (RPKM 9.5) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a hormone involved in modulation of cardiovascular and renal function. It has also been shown in rats to cause weight loss. Several transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
