GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
RTN2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
NSP2, NSPL1, SPG12
Description
Reticulon 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene belongs to the family of reticulon encoding genes. Reticulons are necessary for proper generation of tubular endoplasmic reticulum and likely play a role in intracellular vesicular transport. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. Mutations at this locus have been associated with autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia-12.
