关于 INSL4

功能概要

INSL4 编码胰岛素样蛋白 4，它是胰岛素超家族的一员。 INSL4 编码一个前体，该前体经历翻译后切割以产生 3 条多肽链 AC，形成由所有三个链或仅由 A 和 B 链组成的三级结构。 INSL4 产物的表达发生在早期胎盘细胞滋养层和合体滋养层中。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

INSL4 encodes the insulin-like 4 protein, a member of the Insulin superfamily. INSL4 encodes a precursor that undergoes post-translational cleavage to produce 3 polypeptide chains, A-C, that form tertiary structures composed of either all three chains, or just the A and B chains. Expression of INSL4 products occurs within the early placental cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
