Stathmin 2 (STMN2)

Target
STMN2
Molecular classification
Phosphoprotein, Microtubule regulator
01

Overview

Stathmin 2 (STMN2), also known as superior cervical ganglion 10 protein (SCG10), is a member of the stathmin family of phosphoproteins that regulates microtubule dynamics. It plays a crucial role in neuronal growth, repair, and signal transduction. Decreased STMN2 expression is associated with neurodegenerative diseases, particularly ALS, making it a potential biomarker and therapeutic target. Its function is modulated by phosphorylation, leading to either stabilization or destabilization of microtubules.
