FLOT2 wt Allele

Preferred Label : FLOT2 wt Allele;

NCIt synonyms : ECS-1; ESA1; Flotillin 2 wt Allele; M17S1; ECS1; ESA;

NCIt definition : Human FLOT2 wild-type allele is located within 17q11-q12 and is approximately 18 kb in length. This allele, which encodes flotillin 2 protein, is involved in the maintenance of caveolae structure, cellular adhesion and neuronal signaling. The determination of the level of the expression of the wild-type allele may be utilized to characterize early carcinogenesis.;
