Tanc2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Predicted to be located in axon. Predicted to be active in dendritic spine; glutamatergic synapse; and postsynaptic density, intracellular component. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer; cortical plate; and neocortex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in intellectual developmental disorder with autistic features and language delay, with or without seizures. Orthologous to human TANC2 (tetratricopeptide repeat, ankyrin repeat and coiled-coil containing 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Tanc2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
