Full name: cysteine and serine rich nuclear protein 2

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: C12orf2; C12orf22; FAM130A1; PPP1R72; TAIP-12

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the CSRNP family of nuclear proteins that share conserved regions, including cysteine- and serine- rich regions, a basic domain, a transcriptional activation domain, and bind the sequence 'AGAGTG', thus have the hallmark of transcription factors. Studies in mice suggest that these genes may have redundant functions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
