Gene information for DLGAP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9228
Official gene symbolDLGAP2
Full namediscs, large (Drosophila) homolog-associated protein 2
Aliases,DAP2,SAPAP2,
Gene summaryThe product of this gene is one of the membrane-associated guanylate kinases localized at postsynaptic density in neuronal cells. These kinases are a family of signaling molecules expressed at various submembrane domains and contain the PDZ, SH3 and the guanylate kinase domains. This protein may play a role in the molecular organization of synapses and in neuronal cell signaling. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified, but their full-length nature is not known. This gene is biallelically expressed in the brain, however, only the paternal allele is expressed in the testis (PMID:18055845). [provided by RefSeq]
