WAP Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2MeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : WAP Four-Disulfide Core Domain Protein 2;
MeSH definition : A secreted 25-kDa glycoprotein member of the Whey-acidic-protein (WAP) four-disulfide
core (WFDC) domain family with tissue specific expression in the EPIDIDYMIS. It is
also expressed in a limited number of other organs which include female reproductive
tract, breast tissue, kidney, regions of the respiratory tract and nasopharynx. The
protein is a biomarker for epithelial ovarian cancer.;
