Gene information for SORCS2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID57537
Official gene symbolSORCS2
Full namesortilin-related VPS10 domain containing receptor 2
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes one family member of vacuolar protein sorting 10 (VPS10) domain-containing receptor proteins. The VPS10 domain name comes from the yeast carboxypeptidase Y sorting receptor Vps10 protein. Members of this gene family are large with many exons but the CDS lengths are usually less than 3700 nt. Very large introns typically separate the exons encoding the VPS10 domain; the remaining exons are separated by much smaller-sized introns. These genes are strongly expressed in the central nervous system. [provided by RefSeq]
