EEIG family member 2 (EEIG2)

EEIG family member 2 (abbreviated as EEIG2, also called FAM102B and several other aliases) is a protein-coding gene in humans[6][2]. It is orthologous to mouse Eeig2, which is expressed in the nervous system[4]. EEIG2 is associated with autism spectrum disorder, but its precise biological function, protein structure, and pathways remain poorly defined based on current publicly available sources[2][6]. There is no evidence that EEIG2 is a direct drug target, a receptor, enzyme, transporter, channel, or transcription factor; instead, it is a less-well-characterized protein whose paralog is EEIG1[2]. No known drugs target EEIG2, and there are no established mechanisms of drug action or biomarkers linked to this gene. The gene's sequence, paralogy, and some disease involvement (autism) are cataloged, but functional annotation and therapeutic relevance remain unclear.
