SERF2

SERF2, also known as Small EDRK-rich factor 2, is a protein - coding gene. The encoded protein, SERF2, has no well - established common aliases. It is involved in modulating protein aggregation. By interacting with misfolded proteins, it can either promote or prevent aggregation, a crucial process in maintaining cellular proteostasis.
This protein is related to the ubiquitin - proteasome system, a major pathway for protein degradation. Dysregulation of SERF2 has been associated with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Currently, research is underway to develop drugs that target SERF2 to control protein aggregation and potentially treat related disorders.
