Description
FNDC8 (Fibronectin Type III Domain Containing 8) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 17q25.3. The encoded protein contains fibronectin type III domains, which are typically involved in cell adhesion and extracellular matrix interactions. The precise biological function of FNDC8 remains under investigation, but it is expressed in various tissues and may play a role in cellular signaling.
