STX2 - syntaxin 2 Gene
Also Known as EPM; EPIM; STX2A; STX2B; STX2C
Species: Homo sapiens
About STX2
This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 254 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 4.3), lung (RPKM 3.9) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The product of this gene belongs to the syntaxin/epimorphin family of proteins. The syntaxins are a large protein family implicated in the targeting and fusion of intracellular transport vesicles. The product of this gene regulates epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and epithelial cell morphogenesis and activation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
