Gene information for PRB3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5544
Official gene symbolPRB3
Full nameproline-rich protein BstNI subfamily 3
Aliases,G1,MGC116862,MGC116863,MGC116864,PRG,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a proline-rich salivary protein. It is a major constituent of parotid saliva. This protein is proposed to act as a bacterial receptor. This gene and five other genes that also encode salivary proline-rich proteins (PRPs), as well as a gene encoding a lacrimal gland PRP, form a PRP gene cluster in the chromosomal 12p13 region.
