About UNC5B

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:71,212,570-71,302,864 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 4.8), gall bladder (RPKM 4.7) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the netrin family of receptors. This particular protein mediates the repulsive effect of netrin-1 and is a vascular netrin receptor. This encoded protein is also in a group of proteins called dependence receptors (DpRs) which are involved in pro- and anti-apoptotic processes. Many DpRs are involved in embryogenesis and in Cancer progression. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
