Summary: Enables calcium ion binding activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and enzyme binding activity. Contributes to calcium-dependent cysteine-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to interferon-beta; positive regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process; and positive regulation of myoblast fusion. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; focal adhesion; and neuronal cell body. Biomarker of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; sciatic neuropathy; and traumatic brain injury. Orthologous to human CAPN2 (calpain 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Title: Calpain activation and neuronal death during early epileptogenesis.
The calcium-activated neutral protease-2 (calpain-2) was a direct target gene of miR-137-3p with miR-137-3p binding to the 3'-untranslated region of calpain-2. Silencing of calpain-2 suppressed the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), a primary source of nitric oxide (NO).

Within 24h following L5 ventral root transection (L5-VRT) model injury observed robust elevation of CALP2 and TNF-alpha in bilateral dorsal root ganglias (DRGs) and bilateral spinal cord neurons. CALP2 and TNF-alpha protein induction by L5-VRT were significantly inhibited by pretreatment using the calpain inhibitor MDL28170.
Title: Calpain-2 Regulates TNF-α Expression Associated with Neuropathic Pain Following Motor Nerve Injury.
Results implicate calpain-2 in the Ca2+-dependent regulation of extrasynaptic NMDARs and calpain-1 in the Ca2+-dependent regulation of synaptic NMDARs in substantia nigra pars compacta-dopaminergic neurons during the first postnatal week and suggest that these roles of calpain-1 and calpain-2 are developmentally regulated.

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.
