NCIt synonyms : PRKGR2; Protein Kinase, cGMP-Dependent, Type II wt Allele; cGK, Type II Gene; cGKII; cGK2;
NCIt definition : Human PRKG2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 4q13.1-q21.1 and is approximately
116 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cGMP-dependent protein kinase 2 protein,
is involved in cGMP-dependent signaling which regulates cellular processes such as
cytoskeletal organization and cell motility. The PRKG2 gene is associated with long-term
depression.;
NCIt note : The PRKG2 gene undergoes alternative splicing to produce two RNA variants (6 kb and
4.4 kb) and two corresponding isoforms of cGMP-dependent protein kinase 2 protein.;
