Gene: ATP8B2

Alternate names for this Gene: ATPID

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases, and to the subfamily of aminophospholipid-transporting ATPases. The aminophospholipid translocases transport phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine from one side of a bilayer to another. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1q21.3

Description of this Gene: ATPase phospholipid transporting 8B2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
