FAIM2

Chr 12

Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2

Also known as: LFG, LFG2, NGP35, NMP35, TMBIM2

NCBI Gene: 23017ENSG00000135472UniProt: Q9BWQ8

Predicted to enable calcium channel activity. Involved in regulation of neuron apoptotic process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway via death domain receptors. Located in Golgi membrane and membrane raft.
