Entrez ID 6342
Gene name Sterol carrier protein 2
Gene symbol SCP2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
NLTPNSL-TPSCOXSCP-2SCP-CHISCP-XSCPX
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1p32.3
Summary This gene encodes two proteins: sterol carrier protein X (SCPx) and sterol carrier protein 2 (SCP2), as a result of transcription initiation from 2 independently regulated promoters. The transcript initiated from the proximal promoter encodes the longer S
