PHLDB2 Gene Summary [Human]
Enables cadherin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of focal adhesion assembly; regulation of cytoskeleton organization; and regulation of embryonic development. Located in several cellular components, including basal cortex; cell leading edge; and intermediate filament cytoskeleton. Colocalizes with focal adhesion.

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human PHLDB2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
