Rattus norvegicus
Gene ID: 29154 | Gene type: protein coding

About Capn2

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 cell death; and positive regulation of myoblast fusion. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; focal adhesion; and neuronal cell body. Colocalizes with mitochondrial intermembrane space. Biomarker of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and sciatic neuropathy. Orthologous to human CAPN2 (calpain 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
