GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
LAMP2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CD107b
Description
Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of membrane glycoproteins. This glycoprotein provides selectins with carbohydrate ligands. It may play a role in tumor cell metastasis. It may also function in the protection, maintenance, and adhesion of the lysosome. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins.
