ARMCX2, Official Symbol ARMCX2provided by HGNC Official Full Name armadillo repeat containing X-linked 2provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:16869 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000184867 MIM:300363; AllianceGenome:HGNC:16869 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as ALEX2; GASP9 Summary This gene encodes a protein containing a potential N-terminal transmembrane domain and multiple armadillo (arm) repeats. Proteins containing arm repeats are involved in development, maintenance of tissue integrity, and tumorigenesis. This gene is located in a cluster of related genes on chromosome X. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing in the 5' UTR results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.
