Gene: MSI2

Alternate names for this Gene: MSI2H

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an RNA-binding protein that is a member of the Musashi protein family. The encoded protein is transcriptional regulator that targets genes involved in development and cell cycle regulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with poor prognosis in certain types of cancers. This gene has also been shown to be rearranged in certain cancer cells.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 17

Location in Chromosome : 17q22

Description of this Gene: musashi RNA binding protein 2
