Description
Product Characteristics: NIPA2 belongs to the NIPA family. It is a multi-pass membrane protein. The function of the NIPA2 protein remains unknown.
Target Information: This gene encodes a possible magnesium transporter. This gene is located adjacent to the imprinted domain in the Prader-Willi syndrome deletion region of chromosome 15. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 3, 7 and 21.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
