SPNS2 - SPNS lysolipid transporter 2, sphingosine-1-phosphate Gene

Also Known as DFNB115; SLC62A2; SLC63A2

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 124976

About SPNS2

Cytogenetic location: 17p13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:4,498,881-4,539,035 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in esophagus (RPKM 28.9), kidney (RPKM 26.3) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a transporter of sphingosine 1-phosphate, a secreted lipid that is important in cardiovascular, immunological, and neural development. Defects in this gene are a cause of early onset progressive hearing loss. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
