Gene information for RARRES2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5919
Official gene symbolRARRES2
Full nameretinoic acid receptor responder (tazarotene induced) 2
Aliases,HP10433,TIG2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a secreted chemotactic protein that initiates chemotaxis via the ChemR23 G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane domain ligand. Expression of this gene is upregulated by the synthetic retinoid tazarotene and occurs in a wide variety of tissues. The active protein has several roles, including that as an adipokine, and is truncated on both termini from the proprotein. [provided by RefSeq]
