Gene information for FREM2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID341640
Official gene symbolFREM2
Full nameFRAS1 related extracellular matrix protein 2
Aliases,DKFZp686J0811,DKFZp781I048,KIAA1074,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a membrane protein that belongs to the FRAS1 family. This extracellular matrix protein is thought to be required for maintaining the integrity of the skin epithelium and the differentiated state of renal epithelia. The protein localizes to the basement membrane, forming a ternary complex that plays a role in epidermal-dermal interactions during morphogenetic processes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Fraser syndrome. [provided by RefSeq]
