Gene:
suppression of tumorigenicity 7 like
Gene ID:
205045
Symbol:
ST7L
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene was identified by its similarity to the ST7 tumor suppressor gene found in the chromosome 7q31 region. This gene is clustered in a tail-to-tail manner with the WNT2B gene in a chromosomal region known to be deleted and rearranged in a variety of cancers. The function of this gene has not yet been determined. Several transcript variants encoding many different isoforms have been described, but some have not been fully characterized.
