Tmeff2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of cell migration; negative regulation of cellular component organization; and wound healing, spreading of cells. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer and urinary bladder cancer. Orthologous to human TMEFF2 (transmembrane protein with EGF like and two follistatin like domains 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 Tmeff2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
