About IMPDH2

Cytogenetic location: 3p21.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:49,024,325-49,029,398 (from NCBI)

This gene has 36 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 136.8), skin (RPKM 49.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the rate-limiting Enzyme in the de novo guanine nucleotide biosynthesis. It is thus involved in maintaining cellular guanine deoxy- and ribonucleotide pools needed for DNA and RNA synthesis. The encoded protein catalyzes the NAD-dependent oxidation of inosine-5'-monophosphate into xanthine-5'-monophosphate, which is then converted into guanosine-5'-monophosphate. This gene is up-regulated in some neoplasms, suggesting it may play a role in malignant transformation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
