CHP2 - calcineurin like EF-hand protein 2 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About CHP2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 114 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 110.6), small intestine (RPKM 92.6) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
This gene product is a small calcium-binding protein that regulates cell pH by controlling plasma membrane-type Na+/H+ exchange activity. This protein shares sequence similarity with Calcineurin B and can bind to and stimulate the protein Phosphatase activity of Calcineurin A (CnA) and functions in the Calcineurin/NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells) signaling pathway. Another member of the CHP subfamily, Calcineurin B homologous protein 1, is located on Chromosome 15 and is an inhibitor of Calcineurin activity and has a genetic phenotype associated with Parkinson's Disease (OMIM:606988). This gene was initially identified as a tumor-associated antigen and was previously referred to as Hepatocellular carcinoma-associated antigen 520. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
