Mucolipin-2 (MLN2) is a member of transient receptor potential (TRP) protein superfamily. It consists of gated, tetrameric cation channels. MLN2 has a conserved structure of six transmembrane helices with differing cytoplasmic oriented N- and C-terminal domains. It is localized to late endosomes and lysosomes..
Anti-Mucolipin-2 (C-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting.
生物化学的/生理学的作用
Mucolipin-2 (MLN2) plays an important role in lysosome maturation, lysosome fission, late endosome-lysosome fusion, autophagosome-lysosome fusion, lysosome expulsion and iron release. It stimulates autophagy proliferation via transcription factor EB (TFEB) activation. MLN2 is involved in B‐lymphocyte development.

In mammals, the mucolipin family includes three members mucolipin-1, mucolipin-2, and mucolipin-3 (MCOLN1-3). While mutations in MCOLN1 and MCOLN3 have been associated with mucolipidosis type IV and the varitint-waddler mouse phenotype, respectively, little is known about the function and cellular
