Gab2 (Grb2-associated binder) is the latest member of a new family of multi-functional adapter molecules containing a Pleckstrin Homology domain, defined initially by the cloning of Gab1.
Gab2 is broadly expressed as a 90-100kD protein.
It contains two putative SH3 binding motifs and is tyrosine phosphorylated in response to a range of cytokine, growth factor, and antigen stimulation.
Gab2 associates with SHP2, the p85 subunit of PI3K, Grb2, and SHC demonstrating its involvement in multiple signaling pathways.
Gab 2 transfection experiments show that Gab2, like Gab1, stimulates Erk kinase activity following EGF-stimulation or co-transfection with activated Ras.
By contrast, while Gab1 increases activated Ras or EGF-mediated transactivation of Ekl-1 responsive genes, Gab2 has an inhibitory effect.
Thus, Gab2 may function as a negative regulator of cytoplasmic signaling to the nucleus.
