Summary: Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including ovarian follicle development; ovulation; and regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; membrane; and stress fiber. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; eye; genitourinary system; and limb. Used to study sensorineural hearing loss. Orthologous to human GAS2 (growth arrest specific 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

NM_001330608.2 → NP_001317537.1 growth arrest-specific protein 2 isoform 2

Status: VALIDATED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (3) has multiple differences in the 5' UTR, compared to variant 1. These differences result in a distinct 5' UTR and cause translation initiation at a downstream start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded protein (isoform 2) has a shorter N-terminus compared to isoform 1.
