The protein encoded by this gene is involved in cell motility. It is expressed in breast tissue and together with other proteins, it forms a complex with BRCA1 and BRCA2, thus is potentially associated with higher risk of breast cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.,HMMR,CD168,IHABP,RHAMM,Cancer,Tumor immunology,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Immunology & Inflammation,CD markers,Stem Cells,Embryonic Stem Cells,HMMR
