MPP2 Antibody / MAGUK p55 subfamily member 2

Membrane Palmitoylated Protein 2, also called MAGUK p55 subfamily member 2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MPP2 gene. Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 is a member of a family of membrane-associated proteins termed MAGUKs (membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologs) . MAGUKs interact with the cytoskeleton and regulate cell proliferation, signaling pathways, and intracellular junctions. Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 contains a conserved sequence, called the SH3 (src homology 3) motif, found in several other proteins that associate with the cytoskeleton and are suspected to play important roles in signal transduction.
