Tmed2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables frizzled binding activity and smoothened binding activity. Involved in embryonic morphogenesis; labyrinthine layer blood vessel development; and maternal placenta development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; early conceptus; embryo ectoderm; placenta; and trunk mesenchyme. Orthologous to human TMED2 (transmembrane p24 trafficking protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Tmed2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
