About DPH2

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:43,970,010-43,973,369 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 6.6), appendix (RPKM 6.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is one of two human genes similar to the yeast gene dph2. The yeast gene was identified by its ability to complement a diphthamide mutant strain, and thus probably functions in diphthamide biosynthesis. Diphthamide is a post-translationally modified histidine residue present in elongation factor 2 (EF2) that is the target of diphtheria toxin ADP-ribosylation. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
