Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1408
Gene name Cryptochrome circadian regulator 2
Gene symbol CRY2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HCRY2PHLL2
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11p11.2
Summary This gene encodes a flavin adenine dinucleotide-binding protein that is a key component of the circadian core oscillator complex, which regulates the circadian clock. This gene is upregulated by CLOCK/ARNTL heterodimers but then represses this upregulatio
