Lipoma HMGIC fusion partner-like 2 protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LHFPL2 gene.
Gene data
LHFPL2- Name
- LHFPL tetraspan subfamily member 2
- Type
- protein-coding
This gene is a member of the lipoma HMGIC fusion partner (LHFP) gene family, which is a subset of the superfamily of tetraspan transmembrane protein encoding genes. Mutations in one LHFP-like gene result in deafness in humans and mice, and a second LHFP-like gene is fused to a high-mobility group gene in a translocation-associated lipoma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
