Gene: TGOLN2

Alternate names for this Gene: TGN38|TGN46|TGN48|TGN51|TTGN2|hTGN46|hTGN48|hTGN51

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a type I integral membrane protein that is localized to the trans-Golgi network, a major sorting station for secretory and membrane proteins. The encoded protein cycles between early endosomes and the trans-Golgi network, and may play a role in exocytic vesicle formation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2p11.2

Description of this Gene: trans-golgi network protein 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
