SDF2, also known as stromal cell-derived factor 2, is believed to be a secretory protein. The amino acid sequence deduced from the murine clone and the human homolog are conserved more than 92%, and the aa sequence of SDF2 shows similarity to those of yeast dolichyl phosphate-D-mannose, protein mannosyltransferases. Its expression is ubiquitous and the gene appears to be relatively conserved among mammals. Also, this protein is involved to stromal derived factors with SDF-1, SDF-4 and SDF-5. These are a loosely defined group of molecules that are generated by stromal cells. SDF group have prognostic value and warrant further investigation in their biological functions and clinical value.
