Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A2 or BTN2A2 is a protein encoding gene that may be linked to ME/CFS.[1][2]
Function[edit | edit source]
ME/CFS[edit | edit source]
The first publication from the DecodeME gene study looked for common genes that were found significantly more in ME/CFS patients of European ancestry than in healthy people of European ancestry. BTN2A2 was one of the top genes significantly more common in patients.[1]
