Hyaluronan-binding protein 2

The protein product of the HABP2 gene is a protease, which activates pro-urokinase. A common polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to carotid stenosis and venous thromboembolism. Also mutations are supposed to cause non-medullary thyroid cancer 5.

Gene Structure

The HABP2 gene spans about 36,5kb on chromosome 10 (10q25-q26). Three splice variants are known. The largest consists of 13 exons.
