Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4885
Gene name Neuronal pentraxin 2
Gene symbol NPTX2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
NARPNP-IINP2
Chromosome 7
Chromosome location 7q22.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the family of neuronal petraxins, synaptic proteins that are related to C-reactive protein. This protein is involved in excitatory synapse formation. It also plays a role in clustering of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isox
