This RNA may play a role in B cell function. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter of this gene is associated with an increased risk of autoimmune thyroid disease.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010] Expression Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 6.9), kidney (RPKM 2.4) and 18 other tissues See more
