Tight junction protein ZO-2
Tight junction protein ZO-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TJP2 gene.
Tight junction proteins belong to a family of membrane-associated [guanylate kinase] homologs that are involved in the organization of epithelial and endothelial intercellular junctions. TJPs bind to the cytoplasmic C termini of junctional transmembrane proteins and link them to the actin cytoskeleton .
