ARTN - artemin Gene
Also Known as ART; EVN; NBN; ENOVIN
Species: Homo sapiens
About ARTN
This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 1.0), prostate (RPKM 0.9) and 20 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) subfamily and TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of Smad Family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein signals through the RET receptor and GFR alpha 3 coreceptor, and supports the survival of a number of peripheral neuron populations and at least one population of dopaminergic CNS neurons. This protein has also been shown to promote tumor growth, metastasis, and drug resistance in mammary carcinoma. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
