Nuclear factor of activated T-cells, cytoplasmic 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NFATC2 gene.[5]

Function

This gene is a member of the nuclear factor of activated T cells (

T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation, where it becomes a member of the nuclear factors of activated T cells transcription complex. This complex plays a central role in inducing gene transcription during the immune response. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.[6]

Clinical significance

N terminal region of the EWSR1 gene conferred constant activation of the protein.[7]

Interactions

NFATC2 has been shown to

Protein kinase Mζ.[11] Prostaglandin F2alpha stimulates a NFCT2 pathway stimulating growth of skeletal muscle cells.[12]
