CRTC2

CRTC2, also known as CREB-regulated transcription co-activator 2, is a key protein that plays a vital role in biological processes. It is also commonly called TORC2. This protein functions as a co - activator of CREB and is involved in the regulation of gene expression. It participates in the cAMP signaling pathway, which is closely related to energy metabolism and circadian rhythms.
Dysregulation of CRTC2 is associated with various diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and obesity. In the field of drug research and development, scientists are exploring potential drugs targeting CRTC2 to improve metabolic disorders and related pathologies. Although still in the experimental stage, these efforts show promise for future therapies.
