Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
HECT, C2 and WW domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HECW2 gene .
Clinical significance
Mutations in the HECW2 gene have been associated to epilepsy and intellectual disability . These mutations affect one copy of the HECW2 gene and are believed to change the function of the HECW2 protein.
