Itpr2

Enables inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-gated calcium channel activity and phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Involved in cellular response to cAMP and release of sequestered calcium ion into cytosol. Acts upstream of or within calcium ion transport and cellular response to ethanol. Located in cell cortex and sarcoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including heart; liver; medulla oblongata; skeletal muscle; and spleen. Used to study isolated anhidrosis with normal sweat glands. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and isolated anhidrosis with normal sweat glands. Orthologous to human ITPR2 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Itpr2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
