About NECAB2

Cytogenetic location: 16q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:83,965,177-84,002,776 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 9.4), kidney (RPKM 3.0) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a neuronal calcium-binding protein that binds to and modulates the function of at least two receptors, adenosine A(2A) receptor and metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
