This gene encodes a member of the EPS8 gene family. The encoded protein, like other members of the family, is thought to link growth factor stimulation to actin organization, generating functional redundancy in the pathways that regulate actin cytoskeletal remodeling. EPS8L2 (EPS8 Like 2) is a Protein Coding gene. GO annotations related to this gene include actin binding and Rac guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. An important paralog of this gene is EPS8.
