LAMP-1
LAMPA
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of membrane glycoproteins. This glycoprotein provides selectins with carbohydrate ligands. It may also play a role in tumor cell metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Forensic Context
A study in humans using peripheral blood leukocytes from monozygotic twins and unrelated individuals found that the LAMP1 was identified as a housekeeping gene and exhibited differential expression between a specific male twin pair, belonging to the least variable category of random variations [Sharma et al. DOI:10.1152/physiolgenomics.00228.2003].
