NCIt definition : Human ASIC2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 17q12 and is approximately
1162 kb in length. This allele, which encodes acid-sensing ion channel 2 protein,
plays a role in the modulation of membrane potential through proton-gated cation transport.;
NCIt note : There is a report of a chromosomal aberration involving the NF1 gene and the ASIC2
gene, which is associated with breast cancer. (COSMIC);
