Ptch2 - patched 2 Gene
Also Known as ptc2
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the patched family of transmembrane Receptor Proteins. The encoded protein may be a functional receptor for the morphogen sonic Hedgehog (Shh) and is reportedly involved in limb and skin development. Homozygous mutant mice for this gene exhibit hair loss and epidermal hyperplasia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
