Tacstd2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of branching involved in ureteric bud morphogenesis; negative regulation of cellular component organization; and negative regulation of substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of stem cell differentiation. Located in several cellular components, including basal plasma membrane; extracellular space; and lateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system; genitourinary system; sensory organ; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in corneal dystrophy and gelatinous drop-like corneal dystrophy. Orthologous to human TACSTD2 (tumor associated calcium signal transducer 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 Tacstd2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
