Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 56121
Gene name Protocadherin beta 15
Gene symbol PCDHB15
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
PCDH-BETA15
Chromosome 5
Chromosome location 5q31.3
Summary This gene is a member of the protocadherin beta gene cluster, one of three related gene clusters tandemly linked on chromosome five. The gene clusters demonstrate an unusual genomic organization similar to that of B-cell and T-cell receptor gene clusters.
