ADAP2 ArfGAP with dual PH domains 2

Gene ID: 55803, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CENTA2; cent-b; HSA272195

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene binds beta-tubulin and increases the stability of microtubules. The encoded protein can also translocate to the cell membrane and bind phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdInsP3) and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). In addition, this protein is a GTPase-activating protein for ADP ribosylation factor 6 and may be able to block the entry of some RNA viruses. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
