关于 SDK2

功能概要

该基因编码的蛋白质是免疫球蛋白超家族的成员。该蛋白质包含两个免疫球蛋白结构域和十三个纤连蛋白 III 型结构域。 III 型纤连蛋白结构域存在于细胞外和细胞内蛋白质中，并且已知串联重复包含 DNA、肝素和细胞表面的结合位点。这种蛋白质和同源小鼠序列与果蝇 sidekick 基因产物非常相似，但该超家族成员的具体功能尚不清楚。已观察到该基因位点可变剪接的证据，但尚未确定其他变体的全长性质。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The protein contains two immunoglobulin domains and thirteen fibronectin type III domains. Fibronectin type III domains are present in both extracellular and intracellular proteins and tandem repeats are known to contain binding sites for DNA, heparin and the cell surface. This protein, and a homologous mouse sequence, are very similar to the Drosophila sidekick gene product but the specific function of this superfamily member is not yet known. Evidence for alternative splicing at this gene locus has been observed but the full-length nature of additional variants has not yet been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
