关于 Fxyd5

功能概要

This gene encodes a precursor protein that is member of the FXYD family of transmembrane glycoproteins. Like most members of the FXYD family, the encoded protein is a subunit of the sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase pump. FXYD family members have tissue-specific expression and differentially regulate the activity of this pump. The protein encoded by this gene also plays a role in cell adhesion and motility. The orthologous human protein inhibits epithelial Cadherin, a calcium-dependent adhesion protein and is associated with Cancer (promotes metastasis). Alternative splicing of this mouse gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
