Description
Product Characteristics: CPNE7 (copine VII) is a member of highly conserved copine family, which is composed of calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins containing two N-terminal C domains and a C-terminal A domain (von Willenbrand domain). There is an evidence that copines (at least copine III) may represent a novel unconventional kinase family. CPNE7 is expressed mainly in brain, but also in duodenum, jejunum, thymus and testes.
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of the copine family, which is composed of calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins. The gene product contains two N-terminal C2 domains and one von Willebrand factor A domain. The encoded protein may be involved in membrane trafficking. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
