About HMOX2

Cytogenetic location: 16p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:4,474,736-4,510,347 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 255 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 23.0), brain (RPKM 16.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Heme oxygenase, an essential Enzyme in heme catabolism, cleaves heme to form biliverdin, which is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase, and carbon monoxide, a putative neurotransmitter. Heme oxygenase activity is induced by its substrate heme and by various nonheme substances. Heme oxygenase occurs as 2 isozymes, an inducible heme oxygenase-1 and a constitutive heme oxygenase-2. HMOX1 and HMOX2 belong to the heme oxygenase family. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding three different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013]
