Gene: MAL2 (mal, T-cell differentiation protein 2 (gene/pseudogene))  Homo sapiens
Symbol: MAL2
Name: mal, T-cell differentiation protein 2 (gene/pseudogene)
Description: This gene encodes a multispan transmembrane protein belonging to the MAL proteolipid family. The protein is a component of lipid rafts and, in polarized cells, it primarily localizes to endosomal structures beneath the apical membrane. It is required for transcytosis, an intracellular transport pathway used to deliver membrane-bound proteins and exogenous cargos from the basolateral to the apical surface.

Also known as: MAL proteolipid protein 2; MAL2 proteolipid protein; protein MAL2
