Next-generation sequencing of paired TC and adjacent healthy thyroid tissues demonstrated that polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1-like 1 (PKHD1L1) may serve as a tumour suppressor gene in thyroid cancer.
From a database of hair-cell-enriched translated proteins, we identify Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease 1-Like 1 (PKHD1L1), a large, mostly extracellular protein of 4249 amino acids with a single transmembrane domain.
