VGF - VGF nerve growth factor inducible Gene
Also Known as SCG7; SgVII
生物種: Homo sapiens
About VGF
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants) and 72 orthologues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 14.2) and fat (RPKM 1.5).
Summary
This gene is specifically expressed in a subpopulation of neuroendocrine cells, and is upregulated by nerve growth factor. The structural organization of this gene is similar to that of the rat gene, and both the translated and the untranslated regions show a high degree of sequence similarity to the rat gene. The encoded secretory protein also shares similarities with the secretogranin/chromogranin family, however, its exact function is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
