Entrez ID 3933
Gene name Lipocalin 1
Gene symbol LCN1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
PMFATLCTPVEGP
Chromosome 9
Chromosome location 9q34.3
Summary This gene encodes a member of the lipocalin family of small secretory proteins. Lipocalins are extracellular transport proteins that bind to a variety of hydrophobic ligands. The encoded protein is the primary lipid binding protein in tears and is overpro
