Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 10406
Gene name WAP four-disulfide core domain 2
Gene symbol WFDC2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BENPEDDM4HE4WAP5dJ461P17.6
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q13.12
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
