Suppression of tumorigenicity 2

Last updated

Suppression of tumorigenicity 2 [1] is a gene that in humans is located on chromosome 11p14.3-p12. This region (ST2; GeneID: 6761) [2] on chromosome 11 represents a putative locus that is associated with various forms of cancer.

It has been confused in the published literature [3] with the IL1RL1 gene (GeneID: 9173), [4] which has the alias ST2, but is located on chromosome 2 and encodes a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family, IL1RL1.

Autosome Any chromosome other than a sex chromosome

An autosome is any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome. The members of an autosome pair in a diploid cell have the same morphology, unlike those in allosome pairs which may have different structures. The DNA in autosomes is collectively known as atDNA or auDNA.
