Uteroglobin Antibody / SCGB1A1

The SCGB1A1 gene encodes a member of the secretoglobin family of small secreted proteins. Uteroglobin has been implicated in numerous functions including anti-inflammation, inhibition of phospholipase A2 and the sequestering of hydrophobic ligands. Defects in this gene are associated with a susceptibility to asthma. [RefSeq]
