Caveolin-2 - CISMeF

Preferred Label : Caveolin-2;

NCIt synonyms : CAV2; Caveolae Protein, 20-kD; Caveolin 2; Caveolin 2 Isoform A and B;

NCIt definition : Caveolin-2 (162 aa, 18 kDa) is encoded by the human CAV2 gene. This protein plays a role in caveolae formation and function.;

NCIt note : Caveolins interact with G proteins and link alpha integrin to FYN tyrosine kinase, SHC, GRB2 and the RAS-ERK pathway in promoting cell cycle progression.;
