{"symbol":"GKN2","synonyms":["PRO813","VLTI465","GDDR","BRICD1B","TFIZ1"],"name":"gastrokine 2","description":"The secretory protein encoded by this gene is produced in gastric surface mucous cells, where it can bind trefoil factor family peptide 1 or gastrokine-1. This gene may be a tumor suppressor gene, as its expression is markedly decreased in gastric cancer tissues. The encoded protein interacts with gastrokine-1 and regulates homeostasis of the gastric mucosa.
