slingshot protein phosphatase 2

KIAA1725

slingshot homolog 2 (Drosophila)

Protein phosphatase Slingshot homolog 2

SSH-like protein 2

SSH-2L

hSSH-2L

Protein phosphatase Slingshot homolog 1-like, PH domain-like

Dual specificity phosphatase, catalytic domain

This gene encodes a protein tyrosine phosphatase that plays a key role in the regulation of actin filaments. The encoded protein dephosphorylates and activates cofilin, which promotes actin filament depolymerization. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
