Carcinoids along with few melanomas, stomach and prostate cancers exhibited weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Remaining cancer tissues were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CADPS (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CAPS, CAPS1, KIAA1121
Description
Ca++-dependent secretion activator (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a novel neural/endocrine-specific cytosolic and peripheral membrane protein required for the Ca2+-regulated exocytosis of secretory vesicles. The protein acts at a stage in exocytosis that follows ATP-dependent priming, which involves the essential synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). Alternative splicing has been observed at this locus and three variants, encoding distinct isoforms, are described. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]
