AMIGO2 contains Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain, 6 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats, 1 LRRCT domain and 1 LRRNT domain. It belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, AMIGO family. AMIGO2 may mediate homophilic as well as heterophilic cell-cell interaction with AMIGO1 or AMIGO3. It is required for depolarization-dependent survival of cultured cerebellar granule neurons. AMIGO2 may also contribute to signal transduction through its intracellular domain. It may play a role in the tumorigenesis of a subset of gastric adenocarcinomas. AMIGO2 is highly expressed in breast, ovary, cervix, and uterus.
