Entrez ID 56244
Gene name Butyrophilin like 2
Gene symbol BTNL2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BTL-IIBTN7HSBLMHC1SS2
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6p21.32
Summary This gene encodes a major histocompatibility complex, class II associated, type I transmembrane protein which belongs to the butyrophilin-like B7 family of immunoregulators. It is thought to be involved in immune surveillance, serving as a negative T-cell
