NIBAN2 - niban apoptosis regulator 2 Gene

Also Known as OC58; MEG-3; C9orf88; FAM129B; MINERVA; bA356B19.6

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 64855

Summary

Enables transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including gonadotropin secretion; negative regulation of DNA biosynthetic process; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2026]
Broad expression in esophagus (RPKM 167.0), lung (RPKM 55.7) and 20 other tissues.
