Gene: ATRN

Alternate names for this Gene: DPPT-L|MGCA

Gene Summary: This gene encodes both membrane-bound and secreted protein isoforms. A membrane-bound isoform exhibits sequence similarity with the mouse mahogany protein, a receptor involved in controlling obesity. A secreted isoform is involved in the initial immune cell clustering during inflammatory responses that may regulate the chemotactic activity of chemokines.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20p13

Description of this Gene: attractin

Type of Gene: protein-coding
