ADA2

Also known as ADGF, IDGFL, PAN, SNEDS, CECR1, cat eye syndrome chromosome region, candidate 1, adenosine deaminase 2, VAIHS

Cat eye syndrome critical region protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CECR1 gene.

Gene data

ADA2

Name: adenosine deaminase 2
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: ADGF, CECR1, IDGFL, PAN, SNEDS, VAIHS

This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of the adenosine deaminase protein family. The encoded protein is one of two adenosine deaminases found in humans, which regulate levels of the signaling molecule, adenosine. The encoded protein is secreted from monocytes undergoing differentiation and may regulate cell proliferation and differentiation. This gene may be responsible for some of the phenotypic features associated with cat eye syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013].

Cat eye syndrome critical region protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CECR1 gene.

This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of the adenosine deaminase protein family. The encoded protein may act as a growth factor and have adenosine deaminase activity. It may be responsible for some of the phenotypic features associated with cat eye syndrome. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
