GRHL2 - grainyhead like transcription factor 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as BOM; ECTDS; PPCD4; DFNA28; TFCP2L3

Gene ID: 79977 | Gene type: protein coding

About GRHL2

Cytogenetic location: 8q22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:101,492,439-101,681,200 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 276 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Broad expression in skin (RPKM 14.0), prostate (RPKM 13.5) and 14 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that can act as a homodimer or as a heterodimer with either GRHL1 or GRHL3. Defects in this gene are a cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 28 (DFNA28).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
