FIGURE: 1 / 3
The calcineurin-binding protein Myozenin 2, also designated calsarcin-1, is a member of the calsarcin protein family. Calcineurin is a calcium- and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase that is involved in controlling the slow fiber gene expression in skeletal muscle and hypertrophy of cardiac muscle. The calsarcins are sarcomeric proteins that couple calcineurin and muscle activity. In cardiac and skeletal muscle cells, Myozenin 2 binds calcineurin to α-actinin at the Z-line of the sarcomere. During embryogenesis, Myozenin 1 and 2 are expressed in developing muscle. The Myozenin 2 gene maps to chromosome 4q and is expressed specifically in adult cardiac and slow-twitch skeletal muscle, while Myozenin 1 is only detected in fast skeletal muscle.
