Gene:
proline-rich protein BstNI subfamily 1
Gene ID:
204109
Symbol:
PRB1
Species:
1000
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene is a proline-rich salivary protein. This gene and five other genes that also encode salivary proline-rich proteins (PRPs), as well as a gene encoding a lacrimal gland PRP, form a PRP gene cluster in the chromosomal 12p13 region. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described.
