ELMO2 engulfment and cell motility 2

Gene ID: 63916, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: VMPI; CED12; CED-12; ELMO-2; Ced-12A

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene interacts with the dedicator of cyto-kinesis 1 protein. Similarity to a C. elegans protein suggests that this protein may function in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and in cell migration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
