This gene is one of several genes encoding
pulmonary-surfactant associated proteins (SFTPA) located on
chromosome 10. Mutations in this gene and a highly similar gene
located nearby, which affect the highly conserved carbohydrate
recognition domain, are associated with idiopathic pulmonary
fibrosis. The current version of the assembly displays only a
single centromeric SFTPA gene pair rather than the two gene pairs
shown in the previous assembly which were thought to have resulted
from a duplication.1) Silveyra, P., et al. Am. J. Physiol. Lung Cell Mol. Physiol. 299 (4), L523-L534 (2010) :
