About HEBP2

Cytogenetic location: 6q24.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:138,403,531-138,422,197 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 175 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 80.4), prostate (RPKM 27.2) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is found predominately in the cytoplasm, where it plays a role in the collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) prior to necrotic cell death. The encoded protein enhances outer and inner mitochondrial membrane permeabilization, especially under conditions of oxidative stress. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
