Each of the genes contains at least one large domain of tandemly repeated sequence that encodes the peptide sequence rich in serine and/or threonine residues, which carries most of the O-linked glycosylation (Gendler and Spicer, 1995 [PubMed 7778880]).[supplied by OMIM, Aug 2008] Annotation information Annotation category: suggests misassembly Expression Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 17.8), small intestine (RPKM 15.8) and 6 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
