About CASP2

Cytogenetic location: 7q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:143,288,351-143,307,696 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 215 orthologues, 16 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 14.7), lymph node (RPKM 11.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid Protease (Caspase) family. Caspases mediate cellular Apoptosis through the proteolytic cleavage of specific protein substrates. The encoded protein may function in stress-induced cell death pathways, cell cycle maintenance, and the suppression of tumorigenesis. Increased expression of this gene may play a role in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and temporal lobe epilepsy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
