geneOn this page
Also known as KIAA0120HA1756
Summary
TAGLN2 (transgelin 2, HGNC:11554) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q23.2, encoding Transgelin-2 (P37802).
The protein encoded by this gene is similar to the protein transgelin, which is one of the earliest markers of differentiated smooth muscle. The specific function of this protein has not yet been determined, although it is thought to be a tumor suppressor. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 121 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
