Moderate cytoplasmic and nuclear staining immunoreactivity was observed in a few cases of gliomas and ovarian cancers. Remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
PRUNE (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
DRES-17, HTCD37
Description
Prune exopolyphosphatase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the DHH protein superfamily of phosphoesterases. This protein has been found to function as both a nucleotide phosphodiesterase and an exopolyphosphatase. This protein is believed to stimulate cancer progression and metastases through the induction of cell motility. A pseuodgene has been identified on chromosome 13. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]
