Vascular non-inflammatory molecule 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VNN2 gene.
Vascular non-inflammatory molecule 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VNN2 gene.
This gene product is a member of the Vanin family of proteins which share extensive sequence similarity with each other, and also with biotinidase. The family includes secreted and membrane-associated proteins, a few of which have been reported to participate in hematopoietic cell trafficking. No biotinidase activity has been demonstrated for any of the vanin proteins, however, they possess pantetheinase activity, which may play a role in oxidative-stress response.
