Gene information for THBS4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7060
Official gene symbolTHBS4
Full namethrombospondin 4
Aliases,TSP4,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the thrombospondin protein family. Thrombospondin family members are adhesive glycoproteins that mediate cell-to-cell and cell-to-matrix interactions. This protein forms a pentamer and can bind to heparin and calcium. Studies of the rat counterpart suggest that this protein may be involved in local signaling in the developing and adult nervous system. [provided by RefSeq]
