Anti-SHROOM4 Antibody Picoband®

This gene encodes a member of the APX/Shroom family, which contain an N-terminal PDZ domain and a C-terminal ASD2 motif. The encoded protein may play a role in cytoskeletal architecture. Mutations in this gene have been linked to the X-linked Stocco dos Santos syndrome characterized by cognitive disabilities. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

Expressed in adult pancreas, small intestine, stomach, spinal cord and testis. Less pronounced expression in prostate, colon mucosal lining, and ovary.
