Gene: FBN2
Alternate names for this Gene: CCA|DA9|EOMD
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a component of connective tissue microfibrils and may be involved in elastic fiber assembly. Mutations in this gene cause congenital contractural arachnodactyly.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 5
Location in Chromosome : 5q23.3
Description of this Gene: fibrillin 2
Type of Gene: protein-coding
