Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens


Signal-regulatory protein gamma is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SIRPG gene.[5][6][7] SIRPG has also recently been designated CD172G (cluster of differentiation 172G).

Quick Facts Available structures, PDB ...

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the signal-regulatory protein (SIRP) family, and also belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. SIRP family members are receptor-type transmembrane glycoproteins known to be involved in the negative regulation of receptor tyrosine kinase-coupled signaling processes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[7]
