RHBDF2
Template:Short description Template:Infobox gene Inactive rhomboid protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RHBDF2 gene.[1][2] The alternative name iRhom2 has been proposed, in order to clarify that it is a catalytically inactive member of the rhomboid family of intramembrane serine proteases.[3][4]
The RHBDF2 gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 17 (17q25.1) on the Crick (minus) strand. It is 30.534 kilobases in length and encodes a protein of 856 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 96.686 kilodaltons.
The RHBDF2 protein plays an important role in the secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha,[5][6][7] and has also been implicated in familial esophageal cancer.[8]
It is involved in the regulation of the secretion of several ligands of the epidermal growth factor receptor.[9]
