关于 FETUB

功能概要

该基因编码的蛋白质是胎球蛋白家族的成员，是半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂胱抑素超家族的一部分。胎球蛋白涉及多种不同的功能，包括成骨和骨吸收、胰岛素和肝细胞生长因子受体的调节以及对全身炎症的反应。这种蛋白质可能由细胞分泌。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fetuin family, part of the cystatin superfamily of cysteine Protease Inhibitors. Fetuins have been implicated in several diverse functions, including osteogenesis and bone resorption, regulation of the Insulin and hepatocyte growth factor receptors, and response to systemic inflammation. This protein may be secreted by cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
