About SPOCK2

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:72,059,034-72,089,032 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 58.9), brain (RPKM 55.4) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which binds with glycosaminoglycans to form part of the extracellular matrix. The protein contains thyroglobulin type-1, follistatin-like, and calcium-binding domains, and has glycosaminoglycan attachment sites in the acidic C-terminal region. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
