GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

PAPPA2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

PAPP-A2, PAPPE, PLAC3

Description

Pappalysin 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a member of the pappalysin family of metzincin metalloproteinases. The encoded protein cleaves insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 and is thought to be a local regulator of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) bioavailability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
