A few cases of ovarian and colorectal cancers along with isolated cases of lymphomas, gastric and pancreatic cancers displayed moderate to strong granular immunoreactivity. Remaining cancer tissues were in general negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
THNSL2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FLJ10916, SOFAT, TSH2
Description
Threonine synthase-like 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a threonine synthase-like protein. A similar enzyme in mouse can catalyze the degradation of O-phospho-homoserine to a-ketobutyrate, phosphate, and ammonia. This protein also has phospho-lyase activity on both gamma and beta phosphorylated substrates. In mouse an alternatively spliced form of this protein has been shown to act as a cytokine and can induce the production of the inflammatory cytokine IL6 in osteoblasts. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
