Descripción general

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.[1]

Aplicación

Calcineurin from bovine brain has been used:
  • as a positive control in western blot analysis of oocytes and cumulus cells proteome[2]
  • as a positive control in calmodulin (CaM)-agarose binding assay[3]
  • to test its phosphatase activity in the presence of okadaic acid[4]

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

Calcineurin (CaN) activity is stimulated by nickel (Ni2+) and manganese (Mn2+) ions.[1] It participates in the coupling of Ca2+ signals.[1] CaN may regulate oocyte growth and meiotic maturation in porcine.[2] It also participates in gene regulation, cell survival, and death.[4]
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.

Definición de unidad

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.

Forma física

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

Nota de análisis

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

The processes of oocyte growth, acquisition of meiotic competence and meiotic maturation are regulated by a large number of molecules. One of them could be calcineurin consisting of catalytic subunit A (Aα, Aβ, Aγ isoforms) and regulatory subunit B (B1

Previously, we described that apoptotic cell death induced by the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone (dex) is inhibited by calcineurin inhibitors, FK506 and deltamethrin, in insulin-secreting cells. The aim of the present study was to examine the mechanism of dex-dependent activation of

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

A major cause of neuronal dysfunction is due to altered Ca2+ regulation. An increase in Ca2+ influx can activate Ca2+-dependent enzymes including calpains, causing the proteolysis of its specific substrates. In the present study, calcineurin (CaN) was found to be
