About NINJ2

Cytogenetic location: 12p13.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:564,296-663,445 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 191 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 12.3), bone marrow (RPKM 6.0) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ninjurin (for nerve injury induced) family. It is a cell surface adhesion protein that is upregulated in Schwann cells surrounding the distal segment of injured nerve, and promotes neurite outgrowth, thus may have a role in nerve regeneration after nerve injury.
