The GCM2 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is primarily found in the parathyroid glands. These four glands are located in the neck and produce a hormone called parathyroid hormone that regulates the levels of calcium in the blood. The GCM2 protein is needed for the development of the parathyroid glands before birth, and it plays a role in the maintenance of these glands into adulthood.
Normal function
The GCM2 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is primarily found in the parathyroid glands. These four glands are located in the neck and produce a hormone called parathyroid hormone that regulates the levels of calcium in the blood. The GCM2 protein is needed for the development of the parathyroid glands before birth, and it plays a role in the maintenance of these glands into adulthood.
The GCM2 protein acts as a transcription factor, which means that it binds to specific regions of DNA and helps control the activity of genes. As a transcription factor, it is likely that the GCM2 protein helps produce parathyroid hormone.

גידולי מוח
Neurons have long thin nerve fibres which enable them to send messages to other parts of the brain and down the spinal cord to all parts of the body. The brain also contains glial cells. These provide support, nourishment and protection for neurons. There are various types of glial cells, including astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and ependymal cells..
