The longer of the two (isoform 1) is expressed exclusively in the brain, while isoform 2 is ubiquitously expressed, with highest expression in brain, heart, and muscle (1,2). Both isoforms bind to the catalytic subunit of calcineurin, a Ca++-dependent protein phosphatase involved in several neuronal functions, though BACKGROUND: their C-terminal region and inhibit calcineurin’s activity (3). Unlike isoform 1 of RCAN2, the expression of the second isoform is not induced by the thyroid hormone T3 (3). -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

The genetic contribution to human T2D and related metabolic disorders is evident, and mostly follows polygenic inheritance. The TALLYHO/ JngJ (TH) mice are a polygenic model for T2D characterized by obesity, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose uptake and tolerance, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. -

Here, we characterize the motifs involved proteins form contacts with CN. Among the regulatory proteins, in the physical and functional interaction of the phosphatase one of the most remarkable families is the recently renamed calcineurin with a group of modulators, the RCAN protein family. regulator of calcineurin (RCAN, previously known as DSCR/ Mutation of key residues within the hydrophobic docking-cleft of MCIP/calcipressin/Adapt78 in mammals) (12).

DYRK1A and RCAN1
BMB reports Mini Review Two key genes closely implicated with the neuropathological characteristics in Down syndrome: DYRK1A and RCAN1 Joongkyu Park#, Yohan Oh# & Kwang Chul Chung* Department of Biology, College of Life Science and Biotechnology, Yonsei University, Seoul 120-749, Korea The most common genetic disorder Down syndrome (DS) dis- 21) (2, 3). Other phenotypic features of DS include cognitive plays various developmental defects including mental re- impairment, learning and memory deficit, a high risk of leuke- tardation, learning and memory deficit, the early onset of mia, a decreased risk of solid tumors, congenital heart disease Alzheimer’s disease (AD), congenital heart disease, and cranio- and hypotonia (3-5). Moreover, DS brains show additional facial abnormalities. Those characteristics result from the ex- neuropathological outcomes such as the arrest of neurogenesis tra-genes located in the specific region called ‘Down syn- and synaptogenesis, and neuronal differentiation defects (6, 7). drome critical region (DSCR)’ in human chromosome 21. In They also exhibit a lower brain weight with reduced neuronal this review, we summarized the recent findings of the density, number, and volume regardless of region and age (6, DYRK1A and RCAN1 genes, which are located on DSCR and 8, 9). Although the cause of these CNS hypoplasias in DS pa- thought to be closely associated with the typical features of DS tients remains unclear, several reports using DS brains and cul- patients, and their implication to the pathogenesis of neural tured DS fibroblasts suggest that it may result from enhanced defects in DS.
