A majority of colorectal, cervical and lung cancers as well as several ovarian and endometrial cancers showed moderate to strong immunoreactivity. Distinct staining was also observed in fractions of skin, urothelial, gastric and liver cancers. Malgnant cells in general were negative.
Malignant tissues were in general negative. One case of malignant carcinoid and one endometrial cancer displayed granular cytoplasmic immunoreactivity.
Malignant cells showed weak cytoplasmic staining or were negative.

Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) family. It heteromultimerizes with another MAGUK protein, DLG2, and is recruited into NMDA receptor and potassium channel clusters. These two MAGUK proteins may interact at postsynaptic sites to form a multimeric scaffold for the clustering of receptors, ion channels, and associated signaling proteins. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
