Secreted protein, tissue location of RNA and protein might differ and correlation is complex. Antibody staining in cells/structures not annotated, view images.
Several gliomas, carcinoids, melanomas, testis, skin and pancreatic cancers along with occasional colorectal, ovarian and endometrial cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Other cancer tissues were in general weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SUMF1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FGE, UNQ3037
Description
Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sulfate esters by oxidizing a cysteine residue in the substrate sulfatase to an active site 3-oxoalanine residue, which is also known as C-alpha-formylglycine. Mutations in this gene cause multiple sulfatase deficiency, a lysosomal storage disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
