Gene name

RETN (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

ADSF, FIZZ3, RETN1

Description

Resistin (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene belongs to the family defined by the mouse resistin-like genes. The characteristic feature of this family is the C-terminal stretch of 10 cys residues with identical spacing. The mouse homolog of this protein is secreted by adipocytes, and may be the hormone potentially linking obesity to type II diabetes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
