About AIFM2

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:70,112,271-70,132,825 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants) and 204 orthologues. Broad expression in fat (RPKM 26.6), thyroid (RPKM 7.3) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a flavoprotein oxidoreductase that binds single stranded DNA and is thought to contribute to Apoptosis in the presence of Bacterial and viral DNA. The expression of this gene is also found to be induced by tumor suppressor protein p53 in colon Cancer cells. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
