Difference between Cortactin and SHANK2

Cortactin vs. SHANK2

Cortactin (from "cortical actin binding protein") is a monomeric protein located in the cytoplasm of cells that can be activated by external stimuli to promote polymerization and rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton, especially the actin cortex around the cellular periphery. SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SHANK2 gene.

Similarities between Cortactin and SHANK2

Cortactin and SHANK2 have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Gene, Protein, Protein–protein interaction, SH3 domain.

Protein–protein interaction

Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are the physical contacts of high specificity established between two or more protein molecules as a result of biochemical events steered by electrostatic forces including the hydrophobic effect.
