Tenascin-R is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNR gene. [5] [6] [7]

Contents

Function

Tenascin-R (TNR) is an extracellular matrix protein expressed primarily in the central nervous system. It is a member of the tenascin (TN) gene family, which includes 4 genes in mammals: TNC (or hexabrachion), TNX (TNXB), TNW (also known as TNN) and TNR. [8] [9] The genes are expressed in distinct tissues at different times during embryonic development and are present in adult tissues.[supplied by OMIM] [7]

Tenascin C (TN-C) is a glycoprotein that in humans is encoded by the TNC gene. It is expressed in the extracellular matrix of various tissues during development, disease or injury, and in restricted neurogenic areas of the central nervous system. Tenascin-C is the founding member of the tenascin protein family. In the embryo it is made by migrating cells like the neural crest; it is also abundant in developing tendons, bone and cartilage.

The ASIC2 gene is one of the five paralogous genes that encode proteins that form trimeric acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) in mammals. The cDNA of this gene was first cloned in 1996. The ASIC genes have splicing variants that encode different proteins that are called isoforms.
