Talin-2 is a protein in humans that is encoded by the TLN2 gene. It belongs to the talin protein family.
This gene encodes a protein related to talin-1, a cytoskeletal protein that plays a significant role in the assembly of actin filaments. Talin-2 is expressed at high levels in cardiac muscle and functions to provide linkages between the extracellular matrix and actin cytoskeleton at costamere structures to transduce force laterally.[5]
