Neurobeachin-like 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NBEAL2 gene.[5]

Function

[edit]

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

[edit]

Mutation in this gene have been shown to cause gray platelet syndrome.[6]
