Gene: ASTN2

Alternate names for this Gene: bA67K19.1

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is expressed in the brain and may function in neuronal migration, based on functional studies of the related astrotactin 1 gene in human and mouse. A deletion at this locus has been associated with schizophrenia. Multiple transcript variants encoding different proteins have been found for this locus.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 9

Location in Chromosome : 9q33.1

Description of this Gene: astrotactin 2
