关于 MATN2

功能概要

该基因编码包含 von Willebrand 因子 A 域的蛋白质家族成员。该蛋白质家族被认为与各种组织的细胞外基质中丝状网络的形成有关。该蛋白质包含五个 von Willebrand 因子 A 结构域。该基因的具体功能尚未确定。已发现该基因的两个转录本变体编码不同的亚型。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

This gene encodes a member of the von Willebrand factor A domain containing protein family. This family of proteins is thought to be involved in the formation of filamentous networks in the extracellular matrices of various tissues. This protein contains five von Willebrand factor A domains. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
