- PAK2
-
Serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PAK2 gene.[1][2]
The p21 activated kinases (PAK) are critical effectors that link Rho GTPases to cytoskeleton reorganization and nuclear signaling. The PAK proteins are a family of serine/threonine kinases that serve as targets for the small GTP binding proteins, CDC42 and RAC1, and have been implicated in a wide range of biological activities. The protein encoded by this gene is activated by proteolytic cleavage during caspase-mediated apoptosis, and may play a role in regulating the apoptotic events in the dying cell.[3]

Interactions
PAK2 has been shown to interact with SH3KBP1,[4] CDC42[5][6][7] and Abl gene.[8]
