SPRY3

Protein sprouty homolog 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPRY3 gene.[1][2]

The SPRY3 gene is one of the genes found in the pseudoautosomal regions of the human sex chromosomes (i.e. those 19 genes that are found on both the X and Y chromosome). It is located in the PAR2 region.
