NCIt definition : Human FREM2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 13q13.3 and is approximately
200 kb in length. This allele, which encodes FRAS1-related extracellular matrix protein
2, plays a role in epidermal adhesion, renal epithelial integrity and the development
of eyelids and the anterior eye segment. Mutations in the gene are associated with
Fraser syndrome 2 and isolated cryptophthalmos.;
