bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2

Symbol

BST2 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

Bone marrow stromal cells are involved in the growth and development of B-cells. The specific function of the protein encoded by the bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 is undetermined; however, this protein may play a role in pre-B-cell growth and in rheumatoid arthritis.
