FAM160A2 also known as Family with Sequence Similarity 160 Member A2 is a protein involved in cellular processes. It has a mass of approximately 81 kDa. Researchers have found FAM160A2 expressed in various human tissues with notable presence in the brain and liver. The protein features a conserved region typical for this family suggesting a specific cellular role possibly related to protein-protein interactions.
Biological function summary
FAM160A2 contributes to cellular organization and homeostasis. It assists in regulating intracellular signaling pathways possibly working as part of larger protein complexes. This involvement in cellular signaling pathways implies that FAM160A2 plays a part in maintaining the normal function of cells. It can impact processes such as signal transduction and cellular communication though its precise biological functions remain under study.
Pathways
Research indicates that FAM160A2 participates in signaling cascades such as the MAPK pathway and the apoptosis pathway. Through the MAPK pathway it may act alongside proteins like ERK1/2 to regulate cellular responses to stimuli including stress and growth signals. In the apoptosis pathway FAM160A2's role possibly associates with proteins like Bcl-2 influencing cell death decisions which are critical for tissue development and immune response.
Scientific findings suggest FAM160A2's involvement in neurodegenerative diseases and some liver conditions. In neurodegeneration its interaction with proteins such as Tau could contribute to molecular mechanisms leading to neuronal dysfunction. In liver-related disorders FAM160A2 might connect with proteins involved in metabolic regulation indicating its role in conditions characterized by metabolic imbalance. Understanding these connections could guide future research and therapeutic strategies.
