About STAU2

Cytogenetic location: 8q21.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:73,420,369-73,747,480 (from NCBI)

This gene has 29 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and 14 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 12.9), heart (RPKM 8.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Staufen homolog 2 is a member of the family of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-binding proteins involved in the transport and/or localization of mRNAs to different subcellular compartments and/or organelles. These proteins are characterized by the presence of multiple dsRNA-binding domains which are required to bind RNAs having double-stranded secondary structures. Staufen homolog 2 shares 48.5% and 59.9% similarity with drosophila and human staufen, respectively. The exact function of Staufen homolog 2 is not known, but since it contains 3 copies of conserved dsRNA binding domain, it could be involved in double-stranded RNA binding events. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]
