SPRED2
Introduction
Sprouty-related, EVH1 domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPRED2 gene.[1]
Function
Function
SPRED2 is a member of the Sprouty (see SPRY1)/SPRED family of proteins that regulate growth factor-induced activation of the MAP kinase cascade (see MAPK1[1]).
