AG-3

Required for calcium-mediated regulation of ciliary beat frequency and mucociliary clearance in the airway. Might be involved in the regulation of intracellular calcium in tracheal epithelial cells.

Belongs to the AGR family.

Expressed in the lung, in the ciliated cells of the airway epithelium (PubMed:25751668). Expression increased with differentiation of airway epithelial cells (PubMed:25751668). Not detected in the mucous cells (PubMed:25751668). Expressed in ciliated cells in the oviduct (PubMed:26170690). Also detected in stomach, colon, prostate and liver (PubMed:25751668). Expressed in breast, ovary, prostate and liver cancer (PubMed:26170690). Expression is associated with the level of differentiation of breast cancer (at protein level) (PubMed:26170690).
