Gene Symbol PTN
Gene Full Name pleiotrophin
Function Secreted growth factor that induces neurite outgrowth and which is mitogenic for fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. Binds anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) which induces MAPK pathway activation, an important step in the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and regulation of cell proliferation. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasmic, membranous. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 19 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated by NEK6. [UniProt]
