Gene data
MICAL2- Name
- microtubule associated monooxygenase, calponin and LIM domain containing 2
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- Ebitein1, MICAL-2, MICAL2PV1, MICAL2PV2, MICALCL, mical-cL
The protein encoded by this gene is a monooxygenase that enhances depolymerization of F-actin and is therefore involved in cytoskeletal dynamics. The encoded protein is a regulator of the SRF signaling pathway. Increased expression of this gene has been associated with cancer progression and metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016].
