Official Full Name: selenium binding protein 1<br />Also known as: MTO; LPSB; SP56; hSBP; EHMTO; SBP56; HEL-S-134P<br />This gene encodes a member of the selenium-binding protein family. Selenium is an essential nutrient with powerful anti-cancer properties, and a lack of it may lead to certain neurological disorders. The role of selenium in the prevention of cancer and neurological diseases may be mediated by selenium-binding proteins, and reduced expression of this gene may be associated with several types of cancer. The encoded protein may play a selenium-dependent role in ubiquitination/deubiquitination-mediated protein degradation. Alternative splicing transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
