GAS2 - growth arrest specific 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as GAS-2

Gene ID: 2620 | Gene type: protein coding

About GAS2

Cytogenetic location: 11p14.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:22,626,002-22,885,695 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 280 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Broad expression in liver (RPKM 2.8), kidney (RPKM 0.9) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a Caspase-3 substrate that plays a role in regulating microfilament and cell shape changes during Apoptosis. It can also modulate cell susceptibility to p53-dependent Apoptosis by inhibiting calpain activity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
