DCHS2 - dachsous cadherin-related 2 Gene
Also Known as CDHJ; CDH27; CDHR7; PCDHJ; PCDH23
Species: Homo sapiens
About DCHS2
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 70 orthologues and 33 paralogues. Broad expression in stomach (RPKM 1.1), testis (RPKM 0.9) and 16 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a large protein that contains many Cadherin domains and likely functions in cell adhesion. Genome-wide association studies suggest that this gene may be important in Alzheimer's disease, compressive strength index, and appendicular lean mass. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
