PDCD1LG2 (Programmed cell death 1 ligand 2) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, an oncogene driver, a biomarker and an antigen, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, Thyroid cancer, Breast cancer and 2 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Plays a critical role in induction and maintenance of immune tolerance to self. Acts as a ligand for the inhibitory receptor PDCD1/PD-1, inhibiting T-cell proliferation by blocking cell cycle progression and cytokine production. Location: Secreted; Endomembrane system; Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 9p24.1 (HGNC).
