TSPYL2 TSPY like 2

Gene ID: 64061, updated on 10-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CDA1; CTCL; NP79; TSPX; CINAP; DENTT; SE204; HRIHFB2216

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the testis-specific protein Y-encoded, TSPY-like/SET/nucleosome assembly protein-1 superfamily. The encoded protein is localized to the nucleolus where it functions in chromatin remodeling and as an inhibitor of cell-cycle progression. This protein may play a role in the suppression of tumor growth. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
