Cytoplasmic and membranous staining at variable intensity was observed in most cancer tissues. Gliomas, lymphomas and most renal carcinomas were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
GORASP2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
GOLPH6, GRASP55, GRS2
Description
Golgi reassembly stacking protein 2, 55kDa (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the Golgi reassembly stacking protein family. These proteins may play a role in the stacking of Golgi cisternae and Golgi ribbon formation, as well as Golgi fragmentation during apoptosis or mitosis. The encoded protein also plays a role in the intracellular transport of transforming growth factor alpha and may function as a molecular chaperone. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
