Allgemeine Beschreibung

Calcineurin (CaN) comprises CaN A and CaN B subunits. It exists as a heterodimer with a calmodulin-binding domain, catalytic site, a CaN B binding domain, and an autoinhibitory domain.

Anwendung

Calcineurin from bovine brain has been used:
  • as a positive control in western blot analysis of oocytes and cumulus cells proteome
  • as a positive control in calmodulin (CaM)-agarose binding assay
  • to test its phosphatase activity in the presence of okadaic acid

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

Calcineurin (CaN) activity is stimulated by nickel (Ni2+) and manganese (Mn2+) ions. It participates in the coupling of Ca2+ signals. CaN may regulate oocyte growth and meiotic maturation in porcine. It also participates in gene regulation, cell survival, and death.
Calcineurin is a cyclosporin-sensitive, calcium-regulated, serine-threonine protein phosphatase with broad substrate specificity. It is the major calmodulin-binding protein found in the brain. First identified as an inhibitor of the calmodulin activation of phosphodiesterase 3′:5′ cyclic nucleotide (PDE), calcineurin has similar effects on adenylate cyclase. Serves as a key enzyme involved in T-cell activation. Also involved in the hyperphosphorylation of tau protein in Alzheimer′s disease and has been shown to prevent calpain-mediated proteolysis of tau in differentiated PC12 cells.

Einheitendefinition

One unit will cause a 50% inhibition of the activated phosphodiesterase, 3′:5′-cyclic nucleotide (P 9529) activity when assayed with two units of activator (P 2277) and 0.1 mM Ca2+ in an enzyme coupled system at pH 7.5 at 30 °C.

Physikalische Form

Lyophilized powder containing 0.5% EGTA, buffer salts and stabilizers.

Hinweis zur Analyse

Sigma tests activity in 80 mM Tris, pH 7.5 with 65 mM KCl, 8 mM MgSO4 and 0.3% albumin.

The effects of calcium influx on tau levels and phosphorylation were examined in differentiated PC12 cells. Maitotoxin-induced calcium influx resulted in time- and concentration-dependent tau dephosphorylation and degradation. Incubation of PC12 cells with a membrane-permeable calpain inhibitor blocked maitotoxin-induced tau

The Ca2+-dependent, reversible, interaction of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase with its activator has been used to purify the enzyme by affinity chromatography. Activator-dependent cAMP phosphodiesterase is only a minor component of the proteins specifically adsorbed in the presence of

Abnormally hyperphosphorylated tau is the major protein component of neurofibrillary tangles, the characteristic lesion of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Protein phosphatases (PP) type 1 (PP-1), type 2A (PP-2A) and type 2B (PP-2B) appear to be involved in the regulation of tau
