Summary
This gene encodes a protein that is similar to the human clusterin protein, a secreted chaperone that can also be found in the cell cytosol under certain stress conditions. The human protein has been suggested to be involved in several basic biological events such as cell death, tumor progression, and neurodegenerative disorders.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
