Gene information for DCDC2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51473
Official gene symbolDCDC2
Full namedoublecortin domain containing 2
Aliases,DCDC2A,RU2,RU2S,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the doublecortin family. The protein encoded by this gene contains two doublecortin domains. The doublecortin domain has been demonstrated to bind tubulin and enhance microtubule polymerization. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Reading Disability (RD), also referred to as developmental dyslexia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq]
