Background
MBTPS2, S2P, Membrane-bound transcription factor site-2 protease, Endopeptidase S2P, Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins intramembrane protease, SREBPs intramembrane proteaseMBTPS2 (membrane bound transcription factor peptidase, site 2) encodes a intramembrane zinc metalloprotease, which is essential in development. This protease functions in the signal protein activation involved in sterol control of transcription and the ER stress response. Mutations in MBTPS2 have been associated with ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia (IFAP syndrome), IFAP syndrome has been quantitatively linked to a reduction in cholesterol homeostasis and ER stress response.
