Gene name

MBTPS2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

KFSD, S2P

Description

Membrane-bound transcription factor peptidase, site 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a intramembrane zinc metalloprotease, which is essential in development. This protease functions in the signal protein activation involved in sterol control of transcription and the ER stress response. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia (IFAP syndrome); IFAP syndrome has been quantitatively linked to a reduction in cholesterol homeostasis and ER stress response.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]
