Gene Symbol:
BSCL2 Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
BSCL2, seipin lipid droplet biogenesis associated
Synonyms:
GNG3LG, HMN5, PELD, SPG17, seipin, Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy 2 (seipin), Bernardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy type 2 protein
Genomic Location:
Chr 11: 62214323-62231395
Description:
This gene encodes the multi-pass transmembrane protein protein seipin. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and may be important for lipid droplet morphology. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital generalized lipodystrophy type 2 or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by ...
