Several colorectal cancers along with few cases of testis, prostate and breast showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and/or membranous immunoreactivity. Remaining cancer tissues were in general negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SPECC1L (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CYTSA, KIAA0376
Description
Sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1-like (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a coiled-coil domain containing protein. The encoded protein may play a critical role in actin-cytoskeletal reorganization during facial morphogenesis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of oblique facial clefting-1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. A read-through transcript composed of SPECC1L (sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1-like) and the downstream ADORA2A (adenosine A2a receptor) gene sequence has been identified, but it is thought to be non-coding.
