Gene information for CNKSR2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID22866
Official gene symbolCNKSR2
Full nameconnector enhancer of kinase suppressor of Ras 2
Aliases,CNK2,KIAA0902,KSR2,MAGUIN,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a multidomain protein that functions as a scaffold protein to mediate the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways downstream from Ras. This gene product is induced by vitamin D and inhibits apoptosis in certain cancer cells. It may also play a role in ternary complex assembly of synaptic proteins at the postsynaptic membrane and coupling of signal transduction to membrane/cytoskeletal remodeling. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
