{"symbol":"RARRES2","synonyms":["HP10433","TIG2"],"name":"retinoic acid receptor responder (tazarotene induced) 2","description":"This gene encodes a secreted chemotactic protein that initiates chemotaxis via the ChemR23 G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane domain ligand. Expression of this gene is upregulated by the synthetic retinoid tazarotene and occurs in a wide variety of tissues. The active protein has several roles, including that as an adipokine and as an antimicrobial protein with activity against bacteria and fungi.
