Lens fiber membrane intrinsic protein (LIM2) Recombinant Protein | LIM2 recombinant protein
Recombinant Human Lens fiber membrane intrinsic protein (LIM2)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an eye lens-specific protein found at the junctions of lens fiber cells, where it may contribute to cell junctional organization. It acts as a receptor for calmodulin, and may play an important role in both lens development and cataractogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with cataract formation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
Uniprot Description
MP20: Present in the thicker 16-17 nm junctions of mammalian lens fiber cells, where it may contribute to cell junctional organization. Acts as a receptor for calmodulin. May play an important role in both lens development and cataractogenesis. Belongs to the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, multi-pass; Membrane protein, integral
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19q13.4
Cellular Component: integral to membrane; cell junction
Molecular Function: structural constituent of eye lens
Biological Process: intercellular junction assembly
Disease: Cataract 19
