About EME2

Cytogenetic location: 16p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:1,772,810-1,781,702 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 138 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 3.4), duodenum (RPKM 3.1) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

EME2 forms a heterodimer with MUS81 (MIM 606591) that functions as an XPF (MIM 278760)-type FLAP/fork Endonuclease in DNA repair (Ciccia et al., 2007 [PubMed 17289582]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
