About SZT2

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:43,389,899-43,454,247 (from NCBI)

This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 222 orthologues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 6.6), testis (RPKM 6.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is expressed in the brain, predominantly in the parietal and frontal cortex as well as in dorsal root ganglia. It is localized to the peroxisome, and is implicated in resistance to oxidative stress. It likely functions by increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, but itself has no direct SOD activity. Studies in mice show that this gene confers low seizure threshold, and may also enhance epileptogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
