(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID83660
Official gene symbolTLN2
Full nametalin 2
Aliases,DKFZp451B1011,DKFZp686I0976,DKFZp686K0979,ILWEQ,KIAA0320,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein related to talin 1, a cytoskeletal protein that plays a significant role in the assembly of actin filaments and in spreading and migration of various cell types, including fibroblasts and osteoclasts. This protein has a different pattern of expression compared to talin 1 but, like talin 1, is thought to associate with unique transmembrane receptors to form novel linkages between extracellular matrices and the actin cytoskeleton.
