is a member of the IRS1-like multisubstrate
docking protein family. The encoded protein is an important mediator of branching tubulogenesis and plays a central role in
cellular growth response, transformation and
apoptosis
Apoptosis (from grc, ἀπόπτωσις, apóptōsis, 'falling off') is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms. Biochemical events lead to characteristic cell changes ( morphology) and death. These changes in ...
. Two transcript variants encoding different
isoforms
A protein isoform, or "protein variant", is a member of a set of highly similar proteins that originate from a single gene or gene family and are the result of genetic differences. While many perform the same or similar biological roles, some iso ...
