CAPN2 - calpain 2 Gene
Also Known as CANP2; mCANP; CANPL2; CANPml
Species: Homo sapiens
About CAPN2
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 246 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in lung (RPKM 90.0), gall bladder (RPKM 66.0) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The calpains, calcium-activated neutral proteases, are nonlysosomal, intracellular cysteine proteases. The mammalian calpains include ubiquitous, stomach-specific, and muscle-specific proteins. The ubiquitous Enzymes consist of heterodimers with distinct large, catalytic subunits associated with a common small, regulatory subunit. This gene encodes the large subunit of the ubiquitous enzyme, calpain 2. Multiple heterogeneous transcriptional start sites in the 5' UTR have been reported. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
