About GDF2

Cytogenetic location: 10q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:47,322,454-47,327,588 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 191 orthologues, 31 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward liver (RPKM 6.7).

Summary

This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of Smad Family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein regulates cartilage and bone development, angiogenesis and differentiation of cholinergic central nervous system neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
