About HELZ2

Cytogenetic location: 20q13.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:63,558,086-63,574,239 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 170 orthologues and 10 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 6.7), bone marrow (RPKM 5.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear transcriptional co-activator for peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha. The encoded protein contains a zinc finger and is a helicase that appears to be part of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha interacting complex. This gene is a member of the DNA2/NAM7 helicase gene family. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
