FERMT2 - FERM domain containing kindlin 2 Gene
Also Known as MIG2; KIND2; mig-2; UNC112; PLEKHC1; UNC112B
Species: Homo sapiens
About FERMT2
This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 212 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 84.8), endometrium (RPKM 56.1) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
Enables several functions, including actin binding activity; phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate binding activity; and type I transforming growth factor beta receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cell differentiation; and positive regulation of cellular component biogenesis. Acts upstream of or within cell adhesion and protein localization to cell junction. Located in cytosol; focal adhesion; and nucleoplasm. Is extrinsic component of cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Part of adherens junction and plasma membrane. Biomarker of acute myeloid leukemia. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
