GO curators for mouse genes have assigned the following annotations to the gene product of Spred2. (This text reflects annotations as of Wednesday, January 23, 2013.) Summary from NCBI RefSeq
[Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] SPRED2 is a member of the Sprouty (see SPRY1; MIM 602465)/SPRED family of proteins that regulate growth factor-induced activation of the MAP kinase cascade (see MAPK1; MIM 176948) (Nonami et al., 2004 [PubMed 15465815]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]Summary text based on GO annotations supported by experimental evidence in mouse
Researchers have inferred from direct assay, that the gene product of Spred2
participates in the following biological processes:
The gene product of Spred2 has been shown to bind to the gene products of Kit. [2, 4] Researchers have inferred, based on physical interactions, that the gene product of Spred2
