Surfeit locus protein 2 is part of a group of at least six sequence unrelated genes (Surf-1 to Surf-6). The six Surfeit genes have been classified as housekeeping genes, being expressed in all tissue types tested and not containing a TATA box in their promoter region. The exact function of SURF2 is unknown [ 1 ].
