Product Specifications

Background

Caveolin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAV2 gene. It is mapped to 7q31.1-q31.2. The protein encoded by this gene is a major component of the inner surface of caveolae, small invaginations of the plasma membrane, and is involved in essential cellular functions, including signal transduction, lipid metabolism, cellular growth control and apoptosis. This protein may function as a tumor suppressor. Caveolin-2 is a protein related to caveolin-1 which is derived caveolin-enriched membranes. CAV2 and CAV1 are similar in most respects and they differ in their functional interactions with heterotrimeric G proteins. Both of them are expressed in neuronal cells. Caveolin-2 was upregulated in response to neuronal cell injury.
