Disease relevance of ELP2

 

High impact information on ELP2

  • A Stat3-interacting protein (StIP1) regulates cytokine signal transduction [2].
  • These studies indicate that StIP1 regulates the ligand-dependent activation of Stat3, potentially by serving as a scaffold protein that promotes the interaction between Janus kinases and their Stat3 substrate [2].
  • In the human testis, two rare transcripts were characterized, hELP1 and hELP2, the products of independent duplicated genes [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ELP2

  • The ability of StIP1 to associate with several additional members of the signal transducer and activator of transcription family suggests that StIP1 may serve a broader role in cytokine-signaling events [2].
