MBTPS2 encodes membrane bound transcription factor peptidase, site 2 (519 aa). Zinc metalloprotease that mediates intramembrane proteolysis of proteins such as ATF6, ATF6B, SREBF1/SREBP1 and SREBF2/SREBP2. Highest expression in Cells Cultured fibroblasts (16.6 TPM) and Brain Cerebellar Hemisphere (10.1 TPM).
Osteogenesis imperfecta, type 19 is associated with mutations in the MBTPS2 gene on chromosome X.
The MBTPS2 protein participates in CREB3L2 translocates from the cytosol to the nucleus pathway.
MBTPS2 is classified as a druggable target (Enzyme, Protease, and Transcription Factor categories) with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for MBTPS2 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for osteogenesis imperfecta, type 19 has been reported in the published literature.
Phenotype severity distribution: 6 always present features, 2 very common features, 2 common features.
