TICAM2 Gene Summary [Human]
Predicted to enable phospholipid binding activity. Involved in several processes, including TRAM-dependent toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway; regulation of chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 production; and regulation of toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; endosome; and phagocytic cup. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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 TICAM2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
