Background Information
AFAP1L2, also named as Actin filament-associated protein 1-like 2 or XB130, is a 818 amino acid protein, which contains two PH domains. AFAP1L2 is detected in spleen and thyroid, and at lower levels in kidney, brain, lung and pancreas. AFAP1L2 localizes in the cytoplasm and may play a role in a signaling cascade by enhancing the kinase activity of SRC. AFAP1L2 promotes thyroid tumor growth, and its expression in these cancer cells may affect cell proliferation and survival by controlling the expression of multiple genes, especially transcription regulators.
