It belongs to the junctophilin family and has a mass of approximately 65 kDa. JP-2 is expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle tissues where it facilitates close connections between the plasma membrane and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. These connections are essential for efficient calcium signaling which is integral to muscle contraction and function.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nJP-2 contributes to the structural bridge between transverse tubules (T-tubules) and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It is a critical component of the excitation-contraction coupling machinery in muscle cells. JP-2 works as part of a larger protein complex that includes ryanodine receptors and dihydropyridine receptors. These complexes ensure precise delivery and regulation of calcium ions critical to muscle cell contraction.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nJunctophilin 2 is closely linked within the calcium signaling and muscle contraction pathways. It partners with proteins like the ryanodine receptor (RyR) and the L-type calcium channel both of which are indispensable for calcium ion movement across the muscle cell membranes. JP-2's interaction with these pathways highlights its role in maintaining calcium homeostasis required for muscle function.\u003cbr\u003e\nJunctophilin 2 contributes to conditions such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Mutations or dysregulation of JP-2 can disrupt normal calcium signaling and lead to these heart disorders. In the context of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy its disruption affects proteins like the ryanodine receptor indicating its pivotal place in both disease development and potential therapeutic targeting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854374686889,"sku":"ab110056","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab110056","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
