STAINING SUMMARY
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
FSCN2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
RFSN, RP30
Description
Fascin actin-bundling protein 2, retinal (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the fascin protein family. Fascins crosslink actin into filamentous bundles within dynamic cell extensions. This family member is proposed to play a role in photoreceptor disk morphogenesis. A mutation in this gene results in one form of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa and macular degeneration. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
