Gene: AP3S2

Alternate names for this Gene: AP3S3|sigma3b

Gene Summary:

Gene is located in Chromosome: 15

Location in Chromosome : 15q26.1

Description of this Gene: adaptor related protein complex 3 subunit sigma 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: ARPIN-AP3S2

Alternate names for this Gene: ARPIN|C15orf38|C15orf38-AP3S2

Gene Summary: This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring C15orf38 (chromosome 15 open reading frame 38) and AP3S2 (adaptor-related protein complex 3, sigma 2 subunit) genes. The read-through transcript encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with each individual gene product.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 15

Location in Chromosome : 15q26.1

Description of this Gene: ARPIN-AP3S2 readthrough

Type of Gene: protein-coding
