About PFN2

Cytogenetic location: 3q25.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:149,964,904-149,970,895 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 278 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 148.4), thyroid (RPKM 50.8) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a ubiquitous actin monomer-binding protein belonging to the profilin family. It is thought to regulate actin polymerization in response to extracellular signals. There are two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
