About PDCD2

Cytogenetic location: 6q27 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:170,575,295-170,584,637 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 7.8), thyroid (RPKM 7.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a nuclear protein expressed in a variety of tissues. Expression of this gene has been shown to be repressed by B-cell CLL/lymphoma 6 (BCL6), a transcriptional repressor required for lymph node germinal center development, suggesting that BCL6 regulates Apoptosis by its effects on this protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants and pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 9 and 12. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
