AGFG2: Proteins and Enzymes

AGFG2 codes for a protein is 481 amino acids long and weighs approximately 49 kDa, with a short isoform with a length of 156 amino acids and a weight of approximately 17 kDa. AGFG2 codes for a protein that helps control the necleocytoplasmic transfer of proteins and RNAs, which is a process known as the Rev export pathway. Current studies are being done on several diseases and disorders relating to this gene, including xerophthalmia and bronchiectasis. AGFG2 has also been shown to have interactions with EPS15L1, EPS15, and ITSN1.
