Secretoglobin family 3A member 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SCGB3A2 gene.[1][2]

In addition to regulating thyroid-specific expression of genes, thyroid transcription factor (TITF1; MIM 600635) controls the transcription of genes specifically expressed in lung, such as surfactant proteins (e.g., SFTPA1; MIM 178630) and uteroglobin (UGB; MIM 192020). Mice lacking Ttf1 die immediately after birth from respiratory failure caused by profoundly hypoplastic lungs (Kimura et al., 1996). The UGRP1 gene encodes a uteroglobin-related protein and is a downstream target of TITF1.[supplied by OMIM][2]
