Entrez gene ID | | 5470 |
Official gene symbol | | PPEF2 |
Full name | | protein phosphatase, EF-hand calcium binding domain 2 |
Aliases | | ,PPP7CB, |
Gene summary | | This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein phosphatase with EF-hand motif family. The protein contains a protein phosphatase catalytic domain, and at least two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs in its C terminus. Although its substrate(s) is unknown, the encoded protein, which is expressed specifically in photoreceptors and the pineal, has been suggested to play a role in the visual system. This gene shares high sequence similarity with the Drosophila retinal degeneration C (rdgC) gene. [provided by RefSeq] |
