Description

growth factor receptor bound protein 2

Gene Summary

The protein encoded by this gene binds the epidermal growth factor receptor and contains one SH2 domain and two SH3 domains. Its two SH3 domains direct complex formation with proline-rich regions of other proteins, and its SH2 domain binds tyrosine phosphorylated sequences. This gene is similar to the Sem5 gene of C.elegans, which is involved in the signal transduction pathway. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
