About PPEF2

Cytogenetic location: 4q21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:75,859,867-75,902,452 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 289 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein Phosphatase with EF-hand motif family. The protein contains a protein Phosphatase catalytic domain, and at least two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs in its C terminus. Although its substrate(s) is unknown, the encoded protein, which is expressed specifically in photoreceptors and the pineal, has been suggested to play a role in the visual system. This gene shares high sequence similarity with the Drosophila retinal degeneration C (rdgC) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
