Other Information

Description

**Key characteristics:** * The gene is located on chromosome 17p13.1. * It is a large gene, with a length of approximately 300 kb. * The protein encoded by the gene is a transmembrane protein with a predicted molecular weight of approximately 330 kDa. * The gene is expressed in a variety of cell types, including endothelial cells, thymocytes, macrophages, and neurons. * The protein encoded by the gene is thought to be involved in the regulation of angiogenesis, cell migration, and immune responses. **Pathways and functions:** * The protein encoded by the FDPSP4 gene is thought to be involved in the regulation of angiogenesis. * Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels form. * The protein is expressed in endothelial cells, which are cells that line blood vessels. * Knockdown of the FDPSP4 gene in endothelial cells leads to a decrease in angiogenesis. * This suggests that the protein encoded by the FDPSP4 gene is important for the regulation of blood vessel formation. **Clinical significance:** The gene is a relatively new gene, and there is no known clinical significance associated with it. However, it is a potential target for the treatment of cancer and other diseases that are characterized by abnormal blood vessel formation.
