Ankyrin Repeat And BTB/POZ Domain Containing Protein 2 (ABTB2)

ABTB2 has been proposed to participate in a process, May be involved in the initiation of hepatocyte growth. Proteins are expected to have molecular functionand to localize in extracellular.

ABTB2 contains 18 different introns (17 gt-ag, 1 gc-ag). Transcription produces 4 different mRNAs, 3 alternatively spliced variants and 1 unspliced form. There are 3 probable alternative promotors. The mRNAs appear to differ by truncation of the 5' end, overlapping exons with different boundaries, alternative splicing or retention of one intron. 609 bp of this gene are antisense to spliced gene spychee, raising the possibility of regulated alternate expression. Note that mRNA .bApr07 was found in vivo, although it is a predicted target of nonsense mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
