Gene information for GBP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2634
Official gene symbolGBP2
Full nameguanylate binding protein 2, interferon-inducible
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryInterferons are cytokines that have antiviral effects and inhibit tumor cell proliferation. They induce a large number of genes in their target cells, including those coding for the guanylate-binding proteins (GBPs). GBPs are characterized by their ability to specifically bind guanine nucleotides (GMP, GDP, and GTP). The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase that converts GTP to GDP and GMP.
