NCIt synonyms : Lymphocyte-Specific Protein 1 wt Allele; pp52; WP34;
NCIt definition : Human LSP1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11p15.5 and is approximately
39 kb in length. This allele, which encodes lymphocyte-specific protein 1, may be
involved in the regulation of neutrophil motility, adhesion, and transendothelial
migration.;
NCIt note : The LSP1 genes can undergo alternative splicing, which results in multiple transcript
variants encoding different isoforms. A SNP has been identified in the LSP1 gene (rs3817198),
which is associated with increases in breast cancer incidence. (Nature 2007; 447:1087-1093);
