Source: NCBI Gene (ID 23197)
Symbol: FAF2
Full name: Fas associated factor family member 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: ETEA; UBXD8; UBXN3B
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is highly expressed in peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), compared to normal individuals. It may play a role in regulating the resistance to apoptosis that is observed in T cells and eosinophils of AD patients. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
