Gene information for NPAS2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4862
Official gene symbolNPAS2
Full nameneuronal PAS domain protein 2
Aliases,FLJ23138,MGC71151,MOP4,PASD4,bHLHe9,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-PAS family of transcription factors. A similar mouse protein may play a regulatory role in the acquisition of specific types of memory. It also may function as a part of a molecular clock operative in the mammalian forebrain.
