Gene information for SCARA3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51435
Official gene symbolSCARA3
Full namescavenger receptor class A, member 3
Aliases,APC7,CSR,CSR1,MSLR1,MSRL1,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a macrophage scavenger receptor-like protein. This protein has been shown to deplete reactive oxygen species, and thus play an important role in protecting cells from oxidative stress. The expression of this gene is induced by oxidative stress. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq]
