RCAN2


Description

The RCAN2 (regulator of calcineurin 2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 6.

RCAN2 is a human gene that encodes the protein Calcipressin-2. Calcipressin-2 is a protein involved in regulating cellular processes, particularly in the nervous system. It is known to inhibit the activity of calcineurin, a protein phosphatase that plays a role in a variety of cellular functions including gene expression, muscle development, and immune responses. RCAN2's interaction with calcineurin suggests a potential role in central nervous system development.

RCAN2 is also known as CSP2, DSCR1L1, MCIP2, RCN2, ZAKI-4, ZAKI4.
