Ectonucleoside Triphosphate Diphosphohydrolase 2

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Human ENTPD2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 9q34.3 and is approximately 6 kb in length. This allele, which encodes ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 2 protein, is involved in the metabolism of ATP and other nucleotides yielding purines, which in turn play a role in neurotransmission and other purinergic signaling pathways.
