Protein diaphanous homolog 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DIAPH2 gene.[2][3]

Function

This gene may play a role in the development and normal function of the ovaries. Mutations of this gene have been linked to premature ovarian failure. Alternative splicing results in two protein isoforms.[3]

Interactions

DIAPH2 has been shown to interact with RhoD.[4]
