Also known as MAYP, proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 2
Proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PSTPIP2 gene. This protein, also known as macrophage F-actin-associated and tyrosine phosphorylated protein (MAYP) is a member of the Pombe Cdc15 homology (PCH) family of proteins has been shown to coordinate membrane and cytoskeletal dynamics
Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament polymerization. Predicted to be located in cytoskeleton and membrane. Predicted to be active in actin filament; cytoplasm; and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

== Function == Pstpip2 is selectively expressed in macrophages and macrophage precursors, and it is an actin bundling protein which regulates filopodia formation and macrophage motility
