FSCN2

Fascin homolog 2, actin-bundling protein, retinal (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus), also known as FSCN2, is a human gene.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: FSCN2 fascin homolog 2, actin-bundling protein, retinal (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=25794| accessdate = ]

PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = This gene encodes a member of the fascin protein family. Fascins crosslink actin into filamentous bundles within dynamic cell extensions. This family member is proposed to play a role in photoreceptor disk morphogenesis. A mutation in this gene results in one form of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa and macular degeneration. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: FSCN2 fascin homolog 2, actin-bundling protein, retinal (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus)| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=25794| accessdate = ]
