PALM2AKAP2 Gene Summary [Human]
This gene belongs to the paralemmin downstream gene (PDG) family defined in PMID:22855693. Paralemmin downstream genes may have evolved contiguously with the paralemmin genes and are associated with other paralemmin paralogs in humans and several other taxa. The gene encodes three distinct protein isoforms, the PALM2 isoform, the AKAP2 isoform and the PALM2-AKAP2 isoform. The biological significance of the PALM2-AKAP2 isoforms is yet unknown. Earlier, PALM2 and AKAP2 were annotated as separate genes and PALM2-AKAP2 was annotated as a readthrough gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2019]

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 PALM2AKAP2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

- binding protein
- protein domain specific binding
- protein binding
- MIU-linker domain found in unconventional myosin-VI
