About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for INSL6: The protein encoded by this gene contains a classical signature of the insulin superfamily and is significantly similarto relaxin and relaxin-like factor. This gene is preferentially expressed in testis. Its expression in testis isrestricted to interstitial cells surrounding seminiferous tubules, which suggests a role in sperm development andfertilization. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: INSL6_HUMAN, Q9Y581Function: May have a role in sperm development and fertilization
