Ifitm2 - interferon induced transmembrane protein 2

Involved in heart development. Predicted to be located in late endosome membrane and lysosomal membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adenosquamous gallbladder carcinoma and gallbladder adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to several human genes including IFITM2 (interferon induced transmembrane protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
