Gene: TNC
Alternate names for this Gene: 150-225|DFNA56|GMEM|GP|HXB|JI|TN|TN-C
Gene Summary: This gene encodes an extracellular matrix protein with a spatially and temporally restricted tissue distribution. This protein is homohexameric with disulfide-linked subunits, and contains multiple EGF-like and fibronectin type-III domains. It is implicated in guidance of migrating neurons as well as axons during development, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal regeneration.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 9
Location in Chromosome : 9q33.1
Description of this Gene: tenascin C
Type of Gene: protein-coding
Gene: DELEC1
Alternate names for this Gene: CTS9|DEC1
Gene Summary: The function of this gene is not known. This gene is located in a region commonly deleted in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas. Gene expression is reduced or absent in these carcinomas and thus this is a candidate tumor suppressor gene for esophageal squamous cell carcinomas.
