About INSIG2

Cytogenetic location: 2q14.1-q14.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:118,088,471-118,110,997 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in liver (RPKM 12.3), lung (RPKM 10.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is highly similar to the protein product encoded by gene INSIG1. Both INSIG1 protein and this protein are endoplasmic reticulum proteins that block the processing of sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) by binding to SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP), and thus prevent SCAP from escorting SREBPs to the Golgi.
