RHO family interacting cell polarization regulator 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RIPOR2 gene. [5]
RHO family interacting cell polarization regulator 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RIPOR2 gene. [5]
The protein encoded by this gene stimulates the formation of a non-mitotic multinucleate syncytium from proliferative cytotrophoblasts during trophoblast differentiation. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013].
Mutations in RIPOR2 are associated to hearing loss. [6]
"Cytotrophoblast" is the name given to both the inner layer of the trophoblast or the cells that live there. It is interior to the syncytiotrophoblast and external to the wall of the blastocyst in a developing embryo.
CD1D is the human gene that encodes the protein CD1d, a member of the CD1 family of glycoproteins expressed on the surface of various human antigen-presenting cells. They are non-classical MHC proteins, related to the class I MHC proteins, and are involved in the presentation of lipid antigens to T cells. CD1d is the only member of the group 2 CD1 molecules.
Annexin A2 also known as annexin II is a protein founded by Dr. Baogang Xu, that in humans is encoded by the ANXA2 gene.
HLA-G histocompatibility antigen, class I, G, also known as human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HLA-G gene.
DNA-binding protein inhibitor ID-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ID2 gene.
Heparanase, also known as HPSE, is an enzyme that acts both at the cell-surface and within the extracellular matrix to degrade polymeric heparan sulfate molecules into shorter chain length oligosaccharides.
Syncytin-1 also known as enverin is a protein found in humans and other primates that is encoded by the ERVW-1 gene. Syncytin-1 is a cell-cell fusion protein whose function is best characterized in placental development. The placenta in turn aids in embryo attachment to the uterus and establishment of a nutrient supply.
Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PEBP1 gene.
PRA1 family protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARL6IP5 gene.
Trophinin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRO gene.
Heat shock factor protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSF2 gene.
Homeodomain-only protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HOPX gene. It is an important regulator of cardiac development and a marker of hippocampal neural stem cells.
Tachykinin-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAC3 gene.
Heart- and neural crest derivatives-expressed protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HAND1 gene.
Metastasis-associated protein MTA3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MTA3 gene. MTA3 protein localizes in the nucleus as well as in other cellular compartments MTA3 is a component of the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylate (NuRD) complex and participates in gene expression. The expression pattern of MTA3 is opposite to that of MTA1 and MTA2 during mammary gland tumorigenesis. However, MTA3 is also overexpressed in a variety of human cancers.
Early placenta insulin-like peptide is a protein that in humans is encoded by the INSL4 gene.
Solute carrier family 35 member C2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC35C2 gene.
Angio-associated, migratory cell protein, also known as AAMP, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the AAMP gene. This protein has been conserved in evolution and is so common to many mammals. and it also has a yeast homolog which is the protein YCR072c.
CD320 is a human gene.
FAM163A, also known as cebelin and neuroblastoma-derived secretory protein (NDSP) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FAM163A gene. This protein has been implicated in promoting proliferation and anchorage-independent growth of neuroblastoma cancer cells. In addition, this protein has been found to be up-regulated in the lung tissue of chronic smokers. FAM163A is found on human chromosome 1q25.2; its protein product is 167 amino acids long. FAM163A contains a very highly conserved signal peptide sequence, coded for by the first ~37 amino acids in its sequence; albeit only conserved in eukaryotes, the most distant of which being the Japanese Rice Fish.
