{"symbol":"TNS2","synonyms":["C1-TEN","TENC1","C1TEN"],"name":"tensin 2","description":"The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the tensin family. Tensin is a focal adhesion molecule that binds to actin filaments and participates in signaling pathways. This protein plays a role in regulating cell migration. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and three transcript variants encoding three distinct isoforms have been identified.
