  • Title: Lipophilins: human peptides homologous to rat prostatein.
    Author: Zhao C, Nguyen T, Yusifov T, Glasgow BJ, Lehrer RI.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1999 Mar 05; 256(1):147-55. PubMed ID: 10066439.
    Abstract:
    Lipophilin components A, B and C are human homologues of prostatein, the major secreted protein of rat prostate. This report describes their cDNA sequences, tissue expression and chromosomal localization. Lipophilin gene products were widely expressed in normal tissues, especially in endocrine-responsive organs. The gene for lipophilin C (also called mammaglobin b) is located on chromosome 11q12-q13.1, near the mammaglobin gene, a homologue overexpressed in many breast cancers. The lipophilin B gene resides on chromosome 10q23, a region deleted in many tumors, and the lipophilin A gene is on chromosome 15q12-q13.
