Gene: CAMTA2

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the calmodulin-binding transcription activator protein family. Members of this family share a common domain structure that consists of a transcription activation domain, a DNA-binding domain, and a calmodulin-binding domain. The encoded protein may be a transcriptional coactivator of genes involved in cardiac growth. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 17

Location in Chromosome : 17p13.2

Description of this Gene: calmodulin binding transcription activator 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
