Gene:
GIY-YIG domain containing 2
Gene ID:
195668
Symbol:
GIYD2
Species:
1000
Description:
A segmental duplication of the p arm of chromosome 16 created two identical copies of the GIY-YIG domain containing gene, this record represents the more telomeric copy. Exons of this gene overlap with exons of the phenol-preferring sulfotransferase (SULT1A4) gene. Two transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been identified through sequence analysis.
