Gene name

IMPG2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

IPM200

Description

Interphotoreceptor matrix proteoglycan 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene binds chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronan and is a proteoglycan. The encoded protein plays a role in the organization of the interphotoreceptor matrix and may promote the growth and maintenance of the light-sensitive photoreceptor outer segment. Defects in this gene are a cause of retinitis pigmentosa type 56 and maculopathy, IMPG2-related.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
