Transcription

Function

Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed.[3]

In melanocytic cells CAPN3 gene expression may be regulated by MITF.[4]

Interactions

CAPN3 has been shown to interact with Titin.[5][6]
