PTBP2 - polypyrimidine tract binding protein 2 Gene
Also Known as nPTB; PTBLP; brPTB
Species: Homo sapiens
About PTBP2
This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 277 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 15.6), brain (RPKM 9.8) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene binds to intronic polypyrimidine clusters in pre-mRNA molecules and is implicated in controlling the assembly of Other splicing-regulatory proteins. This protein is very similar to the polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) but most of its isoforms are expressed primarily in the brain. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
