High impact information on LY6G6D

  • Three of them (G6C, G6D, and G6E) encode putative proteins that belong to the Ly-6 superfamily, known to be GPI-anchored proteins attached to the cell surface [1].
  • Recent studies using chromosome analysis by banding techniques, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6D) electrophoretic mobility, and a specific prostatic acid phosphatase test indicate that MA-160 is not of prostatic origin but a HeLa cell contaminant, arising as a result of intraspecies cell contamination [2].
