WFDC2

WAP four-disulfide core domain 2, also known as WFDC2, is a human gene.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: WFDC2 WAP four-disulfide core domain 2| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=10406| accessdate = ]

PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the WFDC domain family. The WFDC domain, or WAP Signature motif, contains eight cysteines forming four disulfide bonds at the core of the protein, and functions as a protease inhibitor in many family members. This gene is expressed in pulmonary epithelial cells, and was also found to be expressed in some ovarian cancers. The encoded protein is a small secretory protein, which may be involved in sperm maturation.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: WFDC2 WAP four-disulfide core domain 2| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=10406| accessdate = ]
