Malignant tissues displayed moderate cytoplasmic and occasional membranous or nuclear positivity. Strong staining was observed in several prostate, thyroid cancers and occasional cases of breast and ovarian cancers. Several malignant lymphomas, testicular, urothelial, renal and liver cancers were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SNX17 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
KIAA0064
Description
Sorting nexin 17 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the sorting nexin family. Members of this family contain a phox (PX) domain, which is a phosphoinositide binding domain, and are involved in intracellular trafficking. This protein does not contain a coiled coil region, like some family members, but contains a B41 domain. This protein interacts with the cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin, and may function in the intracellular trafficking of P-selectin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
