DGCR2 - DiGeorge syndrome critical region gene 2 Gene
Also Known as IDD; LAN; DGS-C; SEZ-12
Species: Homo sapiens
About DGCR2
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 24.0), skin (RPKM 23.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
Deletions of the 22q11.2 have been associated with a wide range of developmental defects (notably DiGeorge syndrome, velocardiofacial syndrome, conotruncal anomaly face syndrome and isolated conotruncal cardiac defects) classified under the acronym CATCH 22. The DGCR2 gene encodes a novel putative adhesion receptor protein, which could play a role in neural crest cells migration, a process which has been proposed to be altered in DiGeorge syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
