About CBX2

Cytogenetic location: 17q25.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:79,777,311-79,787,983 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 251 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 5.1), placenta (RPKM 1.0) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a component of the polycomb multiprotein complex, which is required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes throughout development via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones. Disruption of this gene in mice results in male-to-female gonadal sex reversal. Mutations in this gene are also associated with gonadal dysgenesis in humans. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
