Tns2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; kinase binding activity; and protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of cell population proliferation; negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway; and peptidyl-tyrosine dephosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including collagen metabolic process; multicellular organismal-level homeostasis; and response to muscle activity. Predicted to be active in focal adhesion. Orthologous to human TNS2 (tensin 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 rat Tns2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
