WFDC8  
    


    
      Official symbol:  WFDC8
      Full name:  WAP four-disulfide core domain 8
      Location:  20q13.12
      Also known as:  C20orf170, WAP8, dJ461P17.1
      Entrez ID:  90199
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000158901
      Summary:  This gene encodes a member of the WAP-type four-disulfide core (WFDC) domain family. The WFDC domain, or WAP signature motif, contains eight cysteines forming four disulfide bonds at the core of the protein, and functions as a protease inhibitor. The encoded protein contains a Kunitz-inhibitor domain, in addition to three WFDC domains. Most WFDC genes are localized to chromosome 20q12-q13 in two clusters: centromeric and telomeric. This gene belongs to the telomeric cluster. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, and they encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
