TOB1 transducer of ERBB2, 1

Gene ID: 10140, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TOB; TROB; APRO5; APRO6; PIG49; TROB1

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the transducer of erbB-2 /B-cell translocation gene protein family. Members of this family are anti-proliferative factors that have the potential to regulate cell growth. The encoded protein may function as a tumor suppressor. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
