The regulation of calpain is the subject of many current studies, which suggest that proteolytic activity is regulated post-transcriptionally by mechanisms such as calcium requirements, subcellular localization of the heterodimer, phosphorylation via the EGFR-Erk signaling cascade, endogenous inhibitors (calpastatin), and autoproteolytic cleavage (1). Calpastatin negatively regulates autoproteolytic cleavage of calpain 1 between Gly27 and Leu28 (2). Calpain influences cell migration by modifying rather than degrading its substrates responsible for cell adhesion and cytoskeletal arrangement. Control of calpain activity has caught the attention of drug development since limiting its activity could mute invasiveness of tumors or chronic inflammation (1).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCalcium-activated neutral proteinase 2; Calpain 2; calpain 2, (m\/II) large subunit; calpain 2, large [catalytic] subunit; calpain 2, large subunit; Calpain large polypeptide L2; Calpain M-type; Calpain-2; Calpain-2 catalytic subunit; Calpain-2 large subunit; calpain, large polypeptide L2; CAN2; CANP 2; CANP2; CANPL2; CANPml; CAPN2; FLJ39928; M-calpain; mCANP; Millimolar-calpain\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 80\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799869018281,"sku":"70655T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-70655t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
