LZTR2 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in various cellular processes, including cell signaling and the regulation of protein degradation. It plays a crucial role in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which helps maintain cellular health by removing damaged or misfolded proteins. Mutations in the LZTR2 gene have been linked to certain health conditions, including neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer. Research continues to explore its functions and potential implications for therapies targeting these diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding this gene in the context of human health.
