Kindlin-2 (Fermitin family homolog 2, KIND2, Kindlin-2, MIG2, mig-2, MIG-2, Mitogen-inducible gene 2 protein, PH domain-containing family C member 1, Pleckstrin homology domain-containing family C member 1, PLEKHC1, UNC112, UNC112B, FERMT2) (APC)

The Kindlin family is a group of focal adhesion proteins that have become a point of interest because of their ability to bind and activate integrins. Abnormalities in this ability have linked Kindlin to several diseases, both inherited and acquired, such as Kindler syndrome, cancer, and leukocyte adhesion deficiency. The isoform Kindlin-2 specifically participates in the recruitment of migfilin protein to focal adhesion sites for cell-ECM interactions, coordinates the manufacture of actin and modifications to cell shape. It is also actively involved in connecting ECM adhesion sites and the actin cytoskeleton (Shi, 2007). Kindlin-2 is pervasively expressed throughout tissue.
