Gene information for MFAP4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4239
Official gene symbolMFAP4
Full namemicrofibrillar-associated protein 4
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein with similarity to a bovine microfibril-associated protein. The protein has binding specificities for both collagen and carbohydrate. It is thought to be an extracellular matrix protein which is involved in cell adhesion or intercellular interactions. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
