MAB21L2

Mab-21-like 2 (C. elegans) is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the MAB21L2 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene is similar to the C. elegans MAB-21 cell fate-determining gene, a downstream target of transforming growth factor-beta signaling. It is thought that this gene may be involved in neural development. The protein encoded by this gene is primarily nuclear, although some cytoplasmic localization has been observed.
