Rare prostate cancers showed moderate granular cytoplasmic immunoreactivity in a fraction of cells. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
UNC119 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
HRG4, POC7, POC7A
Description
Unc-119 lipid binding chaperone (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene is specifically expressed in the photoreceptors in the retina. The encoded product shares strong homology with the C. elegans unc119 protein and it can functionally complement the C. elegans unc119 mutation. It has been localized to the photoreceptor synapses in the outer plexiform layer of the retina, and suggested to play a role in the mechanism of photoreceptor neurotransmitter release through the synaptic vesicle cycle. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
