Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including L-leucine binding activity; PH domain binding activity; and protein sequestering activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to L-leucine; cellular response to leucine starvation; and regulation of TORC1 signaling. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of lipophagy; positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction; and regulation of protein kinase activity. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of Atg1/ULK1 kinase complex; TORC2 complex; and nucleotide-activated protein kinase complex. Predicted to be active in lysosomal membrane. Orthologous to human SESN2 (sestrin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Sestrin2 promotes angiogenesis to alleviate brain injury by activating Nrf2 through regulating the interaction between p62 and Keap1 following photothrombotic stroke in rats.

SESN2 protected against Dox-induced cardiotoxicity through improving mitochondria function and mitophagy. These results established SESN2 as a key player in mitochondrial function and provided a potential therapeutic approach to Dox-induced cardiomyopathy.

Sestrin 2 overexpression alleviates hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in rat retinal ganglion cells by downregulating Keap1 and reinforcing activation of Nrf2/antioxidant response element signaling.
Title: Sestrin2 overexpression alleviates hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in retinal ganglion cells by enhancing Nrf2 activation via Keap1 downregulation.
Sestrin2 overexpression activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, leading to enhanced angiogenesis following cerebral ischemia.
Title: Sestrin2 overexpression attenuates focal cerebral ischemic injury in rat by increasing Nrf2/HO-1 pathway-mediated angiogenesis.
In skeletal muscle Sestrin1 expression is higher than Sestrin3, whereas Sestrin2 expression is markedly lower. Sestrin1 has the highest affinity for leucine and Sestrin3 has the lowest affinity. Overall, the results presented herein are consistent with a model in which leucine-induced activation of mTORC1 in skeletal muscle in vivo occurs primarily through release of Sestrin1 from GATOR2.
Title: Evidence for a role for Sestrin1 in mediating leucine-induced activation of mTORC1 in skeletal muscle.
Sesn2 promoted the transfer of nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 to the cytoplasm, it decreased the expressions of Nrf2 and its downstream proteins, sulfiredoxin1 and thioredoxin1 .
Title: Sestrin2 aggravates oxidative stress of neurons by decreasing the expression of Nrf2.
Sestrin 2 may attenuate the activation of Hepatic Stellate Cell and ameliorate liver fibrosis, most likely via upregulation of AMPK phosphorylation and suppression of the mTOR signaling pathway.
Title: Sestrin 2 Attenuates Rat Hepatic Stellate Cell (HSC) Activation and Liver Fibrosis via an mTOR/AMPK-Dependent Mechanism.
sesn2 has a role in lipopolysaccharide-induced oxidative stress in mice and in H9c2 cells

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
