About HAND2

Cytogenetic location: 4q34.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:173,526,091-173,530,229 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in endometrium (RPKM 25.0), adrenal (RPKM 21.4) and 12 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the basic helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors. This gene product is one of two closely related family members, the HAND proteins, which are asymmetrically expressed in the developing ventricular chambers and play an essential role in cardiac morphogenesis. Working in a complementary fashion, they function in the formation of the right ventricle and aortic arch arteries, implicating them as mediators of congenital heart disease. In addition, this transcription factor plays an important role in limb and branchial arch development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
