About EGFL6

Cytogenetic location: Xp22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:13,569,601-13,633,575 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Restricted expression toward placenta (RPKM 287.0).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeat superfamily. Members of this superfamily are characterized by the presence of EGF-like repeats and are often involved in the regulation of cell cycle, proliferation, and developmental processes. The gene product contains a signal peptide, suggesting that it is secreted; an EGF repeat region consisting of 4 complete EGF-like repeats and 1 partial EGF-like repeat, 3 of which have a calcium-binding consensus sequence; an arg-gly-asp Integrin association motif; and a MAM domain, which is believed to have an adhesive function. This gene is expressed early during development, and its expression has been detected in lung and meningioma tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
