Gene information for MAGED2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10916
Official gene symbolMAGED2
Full namemelanoma antigen family D, 2
Aliases,11B6,BCG1,HCA10,JCL-1,MAGE-D2,MAGED,MGC8386,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the MAGED gene family. While the MAGEA and MAGEB genes are silent in normal tissues with the exception of testis and placenta, the MAGED genes are expressed ubiquitously. The MAGED genes are clustered on chromosome Xp11. This gene is located in Xp11.2, a hot spot for X-linked mental retardation (XLMR). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, however, the full length nature of some variants has not been defined. [provided by RefSeq]
