High impact information on ZPBP2
- ZPBPL mRNA was co-expressed with ZPBP mRNA in testis, germ cell tumor, and brain medulla [1].
- Here, we identified and characterized the ZPBP-like (ZPBPL) gene by using bioinformatics [1].
- ZPBPL gene, corresponding to BC043152 cDNA, was found to consist of seven exons [1].
- ZPBPL (316 aa) and ZPBP (351 aa) proteins, showing 34.8% total amino-acid identity, shared the zona pellucida binding protein homologous (ZPBH) domain with conserved 15 cysteine residues [1].
Anatomical context of ZPBP2
Associations of ZPBP2 with chemical compounds
- ZPBPL was a secreted-type glycoprotein with the ZPBH domain, while ZPBP was a type 2 transmembrane protein with the extracellular ZPBH domain [1].
