BTC encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the secreted growth factor. A secreted form and a membrane-anchored form of betacellulin bind to multiple different EGF receptors. Betacellulin romotes pancreatic cell proliferation and insulin secretion, as well as retinal vascular permeability. Mutations in BTC may be associated with type 2 diabetes in human patients.蛋白别名为:BTC; Probetacellulin;基因ID为:685;蛋白质ID:P35070
