This gene encodes a member of the beta-microseminoprotein family. Members of this protein family contain ten conserved cysteine residues that form intra-molecular disulfide bonds. The encoded protein may play a role in prostate cancer tumorigenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
Subcellular Location:
Secreted.
Tissue Specificity:
Detected in prostate epithelium (at protein level). Detected in trachea and testis. Highly expressed in the human prostate cancer cell line PSLC3.
Similarity:
Belongs to the beta-microseminoprotein family.
