EGFL6 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody from Bioassay Technology Laboratory

This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeat superfamily. Members of this superfamily are characterized by the presence of EGF-like repeats and are often involved in the regulation of cell cycle: proliferation: and developmental processes. The gene product contains a signal peptide: suggesting that it is secreted; an EGF repeat region consisting of 4 complete EGF-like repeats and 1 partial EGF-like repeat: 3 of which have a calcium-binding consensus sequence; an arg-gly-asp integrin association motif; and a MAM domain: which is believed to have an adhesive function. This gene is expressed early during development: and its expression has been detected in lung and meningioma tumors
