Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for PLXNA2(NM_025179.4) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene encodes a member of the plexin-A family of semaphorin co-receptors. Semaphorins are a large family of secreted or membrane-bound proteins that mediate repulsive effects on axon pathfinding during nervous system development. A subset of semaphorins are recognized by plexin-A/neuropilin transmembrane receptor complexes, triggering a cellular signal transduction cascade that leads to axon repulsion. This plexin-A family member is thought to transduce signals from semaphorin-3A and -3C.
Gene References into function
- An association is identified between variants in the PLXNA2 gene and schizophrenia in two collections of schizophrenia cases and controls. High-density SNP mapping showed that the region of association spans approximately 60 kb of the PLXNA2 gene.
- results suggest that PLXNA2 may not play a major role in the development of schizophrenia in our Japanese sample
- PLXNA2 confers a varying genetic risk for schizophrenia among different populations.
- Analysis of 3 SNPs at the PLXN A2 locus; we failed to replicate previously reported association of this locus and schizophrenia.
