Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 286256
Gene name Lipocalin 12
Gene symbol LCN12
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 9
Chromosome location 9q34.3
Summary Members of the lipocalin family, such as LCN12, have a common structure consisting of an 8-stranded antiparallel beta-barrel that forms a cup-shaped ligand-binding pocket or calyx. Lipocalins generally bind small hydrophobic ligands and transport them to
