Calcineurin B is a regulatory subunit of the enzyme calcineurin known alternatively as PPP3R1 for Calcineurin BI and PPP3R2 for Calcineurin BII. This protein weighs approximately 19 kDa. Calcineurin B is expressed in various tissues including brain muscle and immune cells. Its primary function is to bind calcium ions facilitating conformational changes that enable the activation of the catalytic subunit of calcineurin. Through these changes it maintains a connection between calcium signaling and other cellular processes.
Biological function summary
Calcineurin B plays an essential role in intracellular signaling by being part of the calcineurin complex which also includes the catalytic subunit calcineurin A. This complex is vital for the dephosphorylation of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) which then translocates to the nucleus to influence the expression of various genes. By controlling gene transcription calcineurin B contributes significantly to immune response muscle development and brain function.
Pathways
Calcineurin B facilitates various cellular reactions as an integral component of calcium signaling and immune response. It is significantly involved in the T-cell receptor signaling pathway where its activity helps regulate T-cell activation and differentiation. Calcineurin B also plays a role in the synaptic plasticity pathway important for learning and memory functions in the brain. It interacts closely with proteins like NFATc and calmodulin that further extend its influence across other signaling pathways.
Calcineurin B is implicated in conditions such as autoimmune diseases and cardiac hypertrophy. In autoimmune diseases disrupted calcineurin function can lead to improper T-cell activity contributing to diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. In cardiac hypertrophy altered calcineurin signaling can affect heart muscle growth and function. Calcineurin B is connected to the protein FKBP12 which is part of the immunosuppressive drug complex influencing its role in these disorders.
