GENE INFORMATION
Gene name	WFDC2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms	dJ461P17.6, EDDM4, HE4, WAP5
Description	WAP four-disulfide core domain 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary	This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the 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 in many family members. This gene is expressed in pulmonary epithelial cells, and was also found to be expressed in some ovarian cancers. The encoded protein is a small secretory protein, which may be involved in sperm maturation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
