PRICKLE2 - prickle planar cell polarity protein 2 Gene
Also Known as EPM5
Species: Homo sapiens
About PRICKLE2
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 274 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in endometrium (RPKM 7.1), brain (RPKM 5.6) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a homolog of Drosophila prickle. The exact function of this gene is not known, however, studies in mice suggest that it may be involved in seizure prevention. Mutations in this gene are associated with progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 5. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
