CD2BP2 CD2 cytoplasmic tail binding protein 2

Gene ID: 10421, updated on 3-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: LIN1; Snu40; FWP010; U5-52K; PPP1R59

Summary

This gene encodes a bi-functional protein. In the cytoplasm, the encoded protein binds the cytoplasmic tail of human surface antigen CD2 via its C-terminal GYF domain, and regulate CD2-triggered T lymphocyte activation. In the nucleus, this protein is a component of the U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complex and is involved in RNA splicing. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 7. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
