Spry2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables ubiquitin-protein transferase inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell differentiation; negative regulation of cell projection organization; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; lung development; and negative regulation of signal transduction. Located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; cytosol; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; embryo mesenchyme; epithelium; future brain; and genitourinary system. Used to study achalasia; ciliopathy; intestinal pseudo-obstruction; and prostate cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis. Orthologous to human SPRY2 (sprouty RTK signaling antagonist 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 mouse Spry2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
