About MICAL2

Cytogenetic location: 11p15.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:12,110,590-12,362,140 (from NCBI)

This gene has 37 transcripts (splice variants), 292 orthologues and 36 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 23.1), colon (RPKM 17.9) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a monooxygenase that enhances depolymerization of F-actin and is therefore involved in cytoskeletal dynamics. The encoded protein is a regulator of the SRF signaling pathway. Increased expression of this gene has been associated with Cancer progression and metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
