About PTX4

Cytogenetic location: 16p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:1,485,886-1,488,944 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 160 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene belongs to the pentraxin superfamily, whose members encode highly conserved multifunctional proteins. The encoded protein, like Other members of this family, contains a conserved pentraxin domain at the C-terminus. The highest levels of expression of the protein were observed in bone marrow, small intestine and testes. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]
