About SGPP2

Cytogenetic location: 2q36.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:222,423,988-222,562,621 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 204 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in thyroid (RPKM 13.7), esophagus (RPKM 12.0) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein that degrades the bioactive signaling molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate. The encoded protein is induced during inflammatory responses and has been shown to be downregulated by the microRNA-31 tumor suppressor. Alternative splice variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
