Function

This gene encodes one of the matrix-remodelling associated proteins. This protein contains 7 leucine-rich repeats and 12 immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains related to perlecan. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome Y.[3]

Clinical relevance

Mutations in this gene have been seen frequently mutated in cases of non-small cell lung carcinoma.[4]

gollark: Suffer, generally.
gollark: They were writing their own constrained programming language to make it work, accursedly.
gollark: Heav had issues with this.
gollark: `python3 -m http.server`
gollark: I mean, there are other better tools but I forgot them.
