Summary

TCN2 (transcobalamin 2, HGNC:11653) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q12.2, encoding Transcobalamin-2 (P20062). Primary vitamin B12-binding and transport protein.

This gene encodes a member of the vitamin B12-binding protein family. This family of proteins, alternatively referred to as R binders, is expressed in various tissues and secretions. This plasma protein binds cobalamin and mediates the transport of cobalamin into cells. This protein and other mammalian cobalamin-binding proteins, such as transcobalamin I and gastric intrisic factor, may have evolved by duplication of a common ancestral gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
