Gene: LMAN2

Alternate names for this Gene: C5orf8|GP36B|VIP36

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a type I transmembrane lectin that shuttles between the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane. The encoded protein binds high mannose type glycoproteins and may facilitate their sorting, trafficking and quality control.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 5

Location in Chromosome : 5q35.3

Description of this Gene: lectin, mannose binding 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
