Gene information for SCG2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7857
Official gene symbolSCG2
Full namesecretogranin II
Aliases,CHGC,SN,SgII,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. Studies in rodents suggest that the full-length protein, secretogranin II, is involved in the packaging or sorting of peptide hormones and neuropeptides into secretory vesicles. The full-length protein is cleaved to produce the active peptide secretoneurin, which exerts chemotaxic effects on specific cell types, and EM66, whose function is unknown. [provided by RefSeq]
