About TCTN2

Cytogenetic location: 12q24.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:123,671,113-123,708,399 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 178 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 7.3), thyroid (RPKM 7.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a type I membrane protein that belongs to the tectonic family. Studies in mice suggest that this protein may be involved in Hedgehog signaling, and essential for ciliogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Meckel syndrome type 8. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
