Entrez ID 7379
Gene name Uroplakin 2
Gene symbol UPK2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
UP2UPII
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q23.3
Summary This gene encodes one of the proteins of the highly conserved urothelium-specific integral membrane proteins of the asymmetric unit membrane which forms urothelium apical plaques in mammals. The asymmetric unit membrane is believed to strengthen the uroth
