About CHN2

Cytogenetic location: 7p14.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:29,146,591-29,514,328 (from NCBI)

This gene has 30 transcripts (splice variants), 223 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Broad expression in duodenum (RPKM 21.4), small intestine (RPKM 16.7) and 20 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-metabolizing protein that contains a phorbol-ester/diacylglycerol (DAG)-type zinc finger, a Rho-GAP domain, and an SH2 domain. The encoded protein translocates from the cytosol to the Golgi apparatus membrane upon binding by diacylglycerol (DAG). Activity of this protein is important in cell proliferation and migration, and expression changes in this gene have been detected in cancers. A mutation in this gene has also been associated with schizophrenia in men. Alternative transcript splicing and the use of alternative promoters results in multiple transcript variants.
