| Name | MCTS family member 2 |
| Description | This locus represents a retrogene copy of MCTS1 (GeneID:28985) and contains an ORF similar to that parent gene. This locus is situated in a differentially methylated region (DMR) and transcripts in this region are imprinted. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2021] |
