Molecular analysis of the human vitamin D binding protein (group specific component, Gc) in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).

Journal of medical genetics - 1 Jun 1997

Rodriguez J A, Evans R L, Daiger S P, Northrup H

Abstract excerpt

Group specific component (Gc) is an abundant plasma protein whose functional role is not clearly established. Gc protein is synthesised in the liver and is known to bind vitamin D, vitamin D metabolites, and G actin; Gc protein is also implicated in macrophage activation. Several polymorphic elec...
