 Generic protein structure example |
Tetraspanin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TSPAN2 gene.[1][2][3]
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility.[3]
