This protein is developmentally regulated and may function in the formation of the brain extracellular matrix. This protein is highly expressed in gliomas and may promote the growth and cell motility of brain tumor cells. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: May play a role in the terminally differentiating and the adult nervous system during postnatal development. Could stabilize interactions between hyaluronan (HA) and brain proteoglycans. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |Sushi| |Lectin C| |Xlink| |V-set| |EGF| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |synapse maturation| |dermatan sulfate biosynthetic process| |dermatan sulfate metabolic process| |chondroitin sulfate catabolic process| |dermatan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process| |dermatan sulfate proteoglycan metabolic process| |hyaluronic acid binding| |chondroitin sulfate biosynthetic process| |chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan biosynthetic process| |chondroitin sulfate metabolic process| |chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan metabolic process| |sulfur compound catabolic process| |glycosaminoglycan catabolic process| |aminoglycan catabolic process| |proteoglycan biosynthetic process| |hippocampus development| |proteoglycan metabolic process| |lysosomal lumen| |Golgi lumen| |anchored component of membrane| |glycosaminoglycan biosynthetic process| |mucopolysaccharide metabolic process| |aminoglycan biosynthetic process| |limbic system development| |glycosaminoglycan metabolic process| |aminoglycan metabolic process| |pallium development| |carbohydrate binding| |sulfur compound biosynthetic process| |monocarboxylic acid biosynthetic process| |carbohydrate derivative catabolic process| |extracellular matrix| |developmental maturation| |telencephalon development| |synapse organization| |carboxylic acid biosynthetic process| |organic acid biosynthetic process| |glycoprotein biosynthetic process| |extracellular matrix organization| |glutamatergic synapse| |sulfur compound metabolic process| |forebrain development| |extracellular structure organization| |glycoprotein metabolic process| |skeletal system development| |drug metabolic process| |monocarboxylic acid metabolic process| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |carbohydrate derivative biosynthetic process| |brain development| |head development| |carboxylic acid metabolic process| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |central nervous system development| |oxoacid metabolic process| |organic acid metabolic process| |carbohydrate derivative metabolic process| |macromolecule catabolic process| |organonitrogen compound catabolic process| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |organic substance catabolic process| |cellular catabolic process| |extracellular region| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp518|RK-33 8μM R08 exp518]]|-1.72| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 8896 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -2.21 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='BCAN Expression in NALM6 Cells: -2.21'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
