Also known as FLJ33340MAPO2
Summary
STPG1 (sperm tail PG-rich repeat containing 1, HGNC:28070) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p36.11, encoding O(6)-methylguanine-induced apoptosis 2 (Q5TH74). May positively contribute to the induction of apoptosis triggered by O(6)-methylguanine.
Involved in positive regulation of apoptotic process and positive regulation of mitochondrial membrane permeability involved in apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion and nucleus.
