Stmn2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable calcium-dependent protein binding activity and tubulin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to nerve growth factor stimulus; regulation of microtubule polymerization or depolymerization; and regulation of neuron projection development. Located in growth cone and vesicle. Orthologous to human STMN2 (stathmin 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 rat Stmn2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
