Gene information for PDCD2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5134
Official gene symbolPDCD2
Full nameprogrammed cell death 2
Aliases,MGC12347,RP8,ZMYND7,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a nuclear protein expressed in a variety of tissues. Expression of this gene has been shown to be repressed by B-cell CLL/lymphoma 6 (BCL6), a transcriptional repressor required for lymph node germinal center development, suggesting that BCL6 regulates apoptosis by its effects on this protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants and pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 9 and 12. [provided by RefSeq]
