FAT2 - FAT atypical cadherin 2 Gene
Also Known as CDHF8; CDHR9; HFAT2; MEGF1; SCA45
Species: Homo sapiens
About FAT2
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in skin (RPKM 15.3), esophagus (RPKM 6.4) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is the second identified human homolog of the Drosophila fat gene, which encodes a tumor suppressor essential for controlling cell proliferation during Drosophila development. The gene product is a member of the Cadherin superfamily, a group of integral membrane proteins characterized by the presence of cadherin-type repeats. In addition to containing 34 tandem cadherin-type repeats, the gene product has two epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats and one laminin G domain. This protein most likely functions as a cell adhesion molecule, controlling cell proliferation and playing an important role in cerebellum development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
