Gene information for ASGR2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID433
Official gene symbolASGR2
Full nameasialoglycoprotein receptor 2
Aliases,ASGP-R,CLEC4H2,Hs.1259,L-H2,
Gene summaryThis cell surface receptor binds to galactose-terminated glycoproteins. It transports these glycoproteins via a series of membrane vesicles and tubules to an acidic-sorting organelle where the receptor and ligand dissociates. Then the receptor is recycled back to the cell surface. There are four alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
