Suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SOCS2 gene.[5][6][7]

This gene encodes a member of the STAT-induced STAT inhibitor (SSI), also known as

interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). The protein encoded by this gene is found to interact with the cytoplasmic domain of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R), and thus is thought to be involved in the regulation of IGF1R mediated cell signaling.[8] Knockout studies in mice also suggested a regulatory role of this gene in IGF-1 related growth control.[7][9]

Interactions

SOCS2 has been shown to

E3 ubiquitin ligase complex.[11] It is under investigation for use in targeted protein degradation.[12]
