Gene:
peptidylprolyl isomerase (cyclophilin)-like 2
Gene ID:
194671
Symbol:
PPIL2
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene is a member of the cyclophilin family of peptidylprolyl isomerases. The cyclophilins are a highly conserved ubiquitous family, members of which play an important role in protein folding, immunosuppression by cyclosporin A, and infection of HIV-1 virions. This protein interacts with the proteinase inhibitor eglin c and is localized in the nucleus. This gene encodes three transcript variants encoding two distinct isoforms.
