Gene information for SYCP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10388
Official gene symbolSYCP2
Full namesynaptonemal complex protein 2
Aliases,SCP2,
Gene summaryThe synaptonemal complex is a proteinaceous structure that links homologous chromosomes during the prophase of meiosis. The protein encoded by this gene is a major component of the synaptonemal complex and may bind DNA at scaffold attachment regions. The encoded protein requires synaptonemal complex protein 3, but not 1, for inclusion in the synaptonemal complex. [provided by RefSeq]
