MXRA5

Matrix-remodelling associated 5 is a is_associated_with::protein in humans that is encoded by the MXRA5 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene encodes one of the matrix-remodelling associated proteins. This protein contains 7 is_associated_with::leucine-rich repeats and 12 immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains related to is_associated_with::perlecan. This gene has a is_associated_with::pseudogene on chromosome Y.

Clinical relevance
Mutations in this gene have been seen frequently mutated in cases of non-small cell lung carcinoma.
