Summary

CHMP2A belongs to the chromatin-modifying protein/charged multivesicular body protein (CHMP) family. These proteins are components of ESCRT-III (endosomal sorting complex required for transport III), a complex involved in degradation of surface receptor proteins and formation of endocytic multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Some CHMPs have both nuclear and cytoplasmic/vesicular distributions, and one such CHMP, CHMP1A (MIM 164010), is required for both MVB formation and regulation of cell cycle progression (Tsang et al., 2006 [PubMed 16730941]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Forensic Context

A study in humans using RNA-seq data from 16 normal tissues identified the CHMP2A as a housekeeping gene with highly uniform and strong expression across all examined tissues, proposing it for calibration in biotechnological applications and genomic studies due to its exceptionally constant expression level [Eisenberg and Levanon DOI:10.1016/j.tig.2013.05.010].
