Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Integral membrane protein 2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITM2A gene .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7] [ 8]
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in osteo - and chondrogenic cellular differentiation (the cells which are responsible for the development of bone and cartilage respectively).[ 6]
ITM2A is also involved in activation of T-cells in the immune system [ 9] myocyte differentiation.[ 10]
