It is expressed in various human tissues with high presence in the brain heart and skeletal muscles. This protein is an integral component of the lipid raft microdomains in cell membranes where it assists in cellular processes such as signal transduction and lipid trafficking. Its membrane association depends on N-terminal hydrophobic sequences which contribute to its distribution on the cell surface.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nFlotillins serve as scaffolding proteins in cellular signaling and play a part in the regulation of endocytosis. Flotillin 2 often forms a hetero-oligomeric complex with Flotillin 1 facilitating its role in organizing membrane microdomains. This interaction supports cellular activities like molecular transport and signal relay. Flotillin 2 contributes to dynamic cellular structures and has been suggested to influence actin cytoskeleton assembly giving it a role in cellular morphology and motility.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nFlotillin 2 associates with important cell signaling pathways notably the MAPK and Wnt signaling pathways. In MAPK pathways flotillin 2 influences cell proliferation and differentiation by modulating interaction with signaling proteins like Ras and ERK. In the context of the Wnt signaling pathway it impacts cellular communication influencing gene expression and development processes by engaging with Dishevelled proteins. These pathways highlight its critical part in processes like cellular growth and communication.\u003cbr\u003e\nFlotillin 2 exhibits connections regarding metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions. Flotillin 2 upregulation appears linked with metabolic syndromes associating with insulin signaling disruptions. Furthermore alterations in its expression relate to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's where it impacts amyloid precursor protein processing and tau protein pathology. These associations position flotillin 2 as a significant player in the understanding and potential treatment of these disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843869036713,"sku":"ab131919","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab131919","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
