ME2 - malic enzyme 2 Gene
Also Known as ODS1
Species: Homo sapiens
About ME2
This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 212 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 15.0), colon (RPKM 14.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a mitochondrial NAD-dependent malic enzyme, a homotetrameric protein, that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of malate to pyruvate. It had previously been weakly linked to a syndrome known as Friedreich ataxia that has since been shown to be the result of mutation in a completely different gene. Certain single-nucleotide polymorphism haplotypes of this gene have been shown to increase the risk for idiopathic generalized epilepsy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
