Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Neurobeachin-like 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NBEAL2 gene .[5]
Function The protein encoded by this gene contains a beige and Chediak-Higashi (BEACH) domain and multiple WD40 domains, and may play a role in megakaryocyte alpha-granule biogenesis .[5]
Clinical relevance Mutation in this gene have been shown to cause gray platelet syndrome .[6]
