FAF2 - Fas associated factor family member 2 Gene

Also Known as ETEA; UBXD8; UBXN3B

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 23197

About FAF2

Cytogenetic location: 5q35.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:176,448,385-176,510,074 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 15.6), thyroid (RPKM 13.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is highly expressed in peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), compared to normal individuals. It may play a role in regulating the resistance to Apoptosis that is observed in T cells and eosinophils of AD patients. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
