MEGF8 multiple EGF like domains 8

Gene ID: 1954, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SBP1; CRPT2; EGFL4; C19orf49

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass type I membrane protein of unknown function that contains several EGF-like domains, Kelch repeats, and PSI domains. Defects in this gene are a cause of Carpenter syndrome 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
