{"symbol":"PLP2","synonyms":["A4","A4LSB"],"name":"proteolipid protein 2 (colonic epithelium-enriched)","description":"This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum in colonic epithelial cells. The encoded protein can multimerize and may function as an ion channel. A polymorphism in the promoter of this gene may be linked to an increased risk of X-linked cognitive disability. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 5.
