CAMTA2 - calmodulin binding transcription activator 2 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About CAMTA2
This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 16.2), testis (RPKM 10.6) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the calmodulin-binding transcription activator protein family. Members of this family share a common domain structure that consists of a transcription activation domain, a DNA-binding domain, and a calmodulin-binding domain. The encoded protein may be a transcriptional coactivator of genes involved in cardiac growth. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
