Pecanex Like Protein 2 (PCNXL2)

PCNXL2 May play a role in tumorigenesis of colorectal carcinomas with high microsatellite instability (MSI-H). Belongs to the pecanex family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. The National Institutes of Health Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) Program is a multiinstitutional effort to identify and sequence a cDNA clone containing a complete ORF for each human and mouse gene. ESTs were generated from libraries enriched for full-length cDNAs and analyzed to identify candidate full-ORF clones, which then were sequenced to high accuracy. The MGC has currently sequenced and verified the full ORF for a nonredundant set of >9,000 human and >6,000 mouse genes. Candidate full-ORF clones for an additional 7,800 human and 3,500 mouse genes also have been identified.
