SPOCK2 - SPARC (osteonectin), cwcv and kazal like domains proteoglycan 2 Gene
Also Known as testican-2
Species: Homo sapiens
About SPOCK2
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 58.9), brain (RPKM 55.4) and 13 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein which binds with glycosaminoglycans to form part of the extracellular matrix. The protein contains thyroglobulin type-1, follistatin-like, and calcium-binding domains, and has glycosaminoglycan attachment sites in the acidic C-terminal region. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
