This protein is highly expressed in the brain and is almost always deleted in Phelan-McDermid syndrome (PMS). MAPK8IP2 appears to regulate the ratio of AMPA receptors to NMDA receptors at glutamate synapses,<ref>{{ cite journal |vauthors=Giza J, etal | title= Behavioral and cerebellar transmission deficits in mice lacking the autism-linked gene islet brain-2. | journal= J. Neurosci. | volume= 30| issue= 44| pages= 14805–16 | year= 2010 | pmid= 21048139 | doi= 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.1161-10.2010 | pmc=3200367}}</ref> and thus may be an important contributor to the intellectual dysfunction and related neurological manifestations characteristic of PMS.

The protein encoded by this gene is closely related to MAPK8IP1/IB1/JIP-1, a scaffold protein that is involved in the c-Jun amino-terminal kinase signaling pathway. This protein is expressed in brain and pancreatic cells. It has been shown to interact with, and regulate the activity of MAPK8/JNK1, and MAP2K7/MKK7 kinases. This protein thus is thought to function as a regulator of signal transduction by protein kinase cascade in brain and pancreatic beta-cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported for this gene.<ref name="entrez" />
