Pgap2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to be involved in GPI anchor biosynthetic process and protein localization to plasma membrane. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hyperphosphatasia with impaired intellectual development syndrome 3. Orthologous to human PGAP2 (post-GPI attachment to proteins 2).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Pgap2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Frag1/DRAM/Sfk1 family
  • protein binding
