Tiam2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables GTPase activator activity and guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of axonogenesis and small GTPase-mediated signal transduction. Located in cytoplasm and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cartilage; central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human TIAM2 (TIAM Rac1 associated GEF 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 Tiam2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
