| Entrez gene ID | | 11172 |
| Official gene symbol | | INSL6 |
| Full name | | insulin-like 6 |
| Aliases | | ,RIF1, |
| Gene summary | | The protein encoded by this gene contains a classical signature of the insulin superfamily and is significantly similar to relaxin and relaxin-like factor. This gene is preferentially expressed in testis. Its expression in testis is restricted to interstitial cells surrounding seminiferous tubules, which suggests a role in sperm development and fertilization. [provided by RefSeq] |
