SNTG2

SNTG2 or Syntrophin Gamma 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SNTG2 gene. It is a member of the Syntrophin family of proteins, which are believed to play a crucial role in the interaction between proteins within the body.

Function

The SNTG2 gene provides instructions for making a protein called Syntrophin Gamma 2. This protein is part of a larger protein complex that is involved in the signaling pathways within cells. It is thought to play a role in the organization of intracellular structures and the regulation of cell adhesion and migration.

Clinical significance

Mutations in the SNTG2 gene have been associated with a variety of medical conditions. For example, a study published in 2019 found that mutations in this gene were associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, including intellectual disability, epilepsy, and autism spectrum disorder.
