EIPR1 Gene

Name EARP complex and GARP complex interacting protein 1
Description This gene has been reported in PMID 9403053 as one of several tumor-suppressing subtransferable fragments located in the imprinted gene domain of 11p15.5, an important tumor-suppressor gene region. Alterations in this region have been associated with the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, and lung, ovarian, and breast cancer. Alignment of this gene to genomic sequence data suggests that this gene resides on chromosome 2 rather than chromosome 11. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n EIPR1, which is also referred to as TSSC1, encodes a conserved WD40/β‐propeller protein that plays a central role in endosomal trafficking and in the sorting of dense‐core vesicle (DCV) cargoes.
