About UHRF2

Cytogenetic location: 9p24.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:6,413,199-6,507,054 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 16.7), lymph node (RPKM 12.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a nuclear protein which is involved in cell-cycle regulation. The encoded protein is a ubiquitin-ligase capable of ubiquinating PCNP (PEST-containing nuclear protein), and together they may play a role in tumorigenesis. The encoded protein contains an NIRF_N domain, a PHD finger, a set- and ring-associated (SRA) domain, and a RING finger domain and several of these domains have been shown to be essential for the regulation of cell proliferation. This protein may also have a role in intranuclear degradation of polyglutamine aggregates. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants some of which are non-protein coding.
