| DEFINITION |
Slit homolog 2 protein (1529 aa, ~170 kDa) is encoded by the human SLIT2 gene. This protein is involved in the modulation of cell migration and the development of the nervous system. |
| DesignNote |
Slit homolog 2 protein is cleaved into an N-terminal fragment that contains the four leucine-rich repeats and five epidermal growth factor repeats and a C-terminal fragment that contains four epidermal growth factor repeats and the cysteine knot.. The Slit homolog 2 protein N-terminal product may repress olfactory bulb axon growth and induce dorsal root ganglia axon migration. (UniProt) Slit homolog 2 protein is a ligand for both roundabout homolog 1 and 2; it also can bind to gremlin-1. |
