DOK2 docking protein 2

Gene ID: 9046, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: p56DOK; p56dok-2

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated in hematopoietic progenitors isolated from chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients in the chronic phase. It may be a critical substrate for p210(bcr/abl), a chimeric protein whose presence is associated with CML. This encoded protein binds p120 (RasGAP) from CML cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
