Gene Symbol | PTBP2 |
Entrez Gene ID | 58155 |
Full Name | polypyrimidine tract binding protein 2 |
Synonyms | PTBLP,brPTB,nPTB |
General protein information |

Gene Type | protein-coding |
Organism | Homo sapiens(human) |
Genome | |
Summary | The protein encoded by this gene binds to intronic polypyrimidine clusters in pre-mRNA molecules and is implicated in controlling the assembly of other splicing-regulatory proteins. This protein is very similar to the polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) but most of its isoforms are expressed primarily in the brain. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]. |
