Description

DCDC2C (Doublecortin Domain Containing 2C) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 2p25.3. It belongs to the doublecortin family, which is involved in microtubule binding and neuronal migration. The gene is expressed in various tissues, with notable expression in the brain and testis. DCDC2C has been implicated in ciliary function and neurodevelopmental processes.
