Fasciculation and elongation protein zeta-2 (FEZ2) is a homolog to the mammalian FEZ1, itself an ortholog of the C. elegans UNC-76 (1,2). In contrast to FEZ1, FEZ2 mRNA is widely expressed in mouse tissues. FEZ2 interacts with protein kinase C (PKC)-Z substrate and induces neurite extension of PC12 cells when co-expressed with a constitutively active form of PKC-Z, suggesting FEZ2 may play an important role in the morphological changes of various cells by associating with PKC-Z in a tissue non-specific manner (1). FEZ2 can interact with FEZ1 through its c- terminal regions and especially its coiled-coil region (5). At least two isoforms of FEZ2 are known to exist.
