Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein B

Preferred Label : Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein B;

NCIt synonyms : Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Proteolipid SPL(Phe); Surfactant Protein B; SP-B; SFTPB; Pulmonary Surfactant Apoprotein PSP-B; 6 kDa Protein; 18 kDa Pulmonary-Surfactant Protein;

NCIt definition : Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B (381 aa, 42 kDa) is encoded by the human SFTPB gene. This protein plays a role in alveolar stability.;

NCIt note : Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B is cleaved N-terminally and C-terminally yielding a 79 amino acid mature form (also called pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B) that is comprised of amino acids 201-279 of the full-length protein. (UniProt);
