MEGF8 - multiple EGF like domains 8 Gene

Also Known as SBP1; CRPT2; EGFL4; C19orf49

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 1954

About MEGF8

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:42,325,635-42,378,765 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 179 orthologues, 27 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 10.9), fat (RPKM 6.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
