CREB regulated transcription coactivator 2, also known as CRTC2, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CRTC2 gene.[1][2][3]

Contents

Function

CRTC2, initially called TORC2, is a transcriptional coactivator for the transcription factor CREB and a central regulator of gluconeogenic gene expression in response to cAMP.[4]

Interactions

CRTC2 has been shown to interact with SNF1LK2[5] and YWHAQ.[5][6]
