CHIC2 Gene (Protein Coding)

Cysteine Rich Hydrophobic Domain 2

GC04M054007
GIFtS:
37
This gene encodes a member of the CHIC family of proteins. The encoded protein contains a cysteine-rich hydrophobic (CHIC) motif, and is localized to vesicular structures and the plasma membrane. This gene is associated with some cases of acute myeloid leukemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] See more...
