{"symbol":"MPP2","synonyms":["DLG2"],"name":"membrane protein, palmitoylated 2 (MAGUK p55 subfamily member 2)","description":" Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 is a member of a family of membrane-associated proteins termed MAGUKs (membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologs).  MAGUKs interact with the cytoskeleton and regulate cell proliferation, signaling pathways, and intracellular junctions.  Palmitoylated membrane protein 2 contains a conserved sequence, called the SH3 (src homology 3) motif, found in several other proteins that associate with the cytoskeleton and are suspected to play important roles in signal transduction.
