CYFIP2 wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human CYFIP2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5q33.3 and is approximately 130 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 2, plays a role in the regulation of apoptosis, cell-cell adhesion, neurotrophin signaling and neuronal morphogenesis. Mutations in the gene are associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 65.

**Synonyms:** - Cytoplasmic FMR1 Interacting Protein 2 wt Allele - DEE65 - EIEE65 - KIAA1168 - PIR121
