Target Name
AGAP2
Target Full Name
Arf-GAP with GTPase, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein 2
Target Function
GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and also seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion.
Target Subcellular Location
[Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm. Nucleus.; [Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm.
Target Protein Families
Centaurin gamma-like family
Target Tissue Specificity
Isoform 1 is brain-specific. Isoform 2 is ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in brain and heart.

Target Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the centaurin gamma-like family. It mediates anti-apoptotic effects of nerve growth factor by activating nuclear phosphoinositide 3-kinase. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, and promotes cancer cell invasion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
