Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** PPEF2 is a member of the protein phosphatase family, characterized by the presence of an EF-hand domain, which is crucial for its calcium-binding capabilities. This domain enables PPEF2 to regulate various cellular processes, including signal transduction pathways, cell proliferation, and differentiation. The protein's serine/threonine phosphatase activity allows it to dephosphorylate and regulate downstream targets, thereby modulating cellular responses to environmental stimuli. **Pathways and Functions:** PPEF2 is involved in numerous signaling pathways, including: 1. **Calcium ion binding**: PPEF2's EF-hand domain facilitates calcium ion binding, which regulates the protein's activity and interactions with other molecules. 2. **Visual perception**: PPEF2 is significantly expressed in retinal rod cells and photoreceptor cells, suggesting its involvement in visual signal transduction pathways. 3. **Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling**: PPEF2 regulates the MAPK cascade, which is crucial for cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. 4. **Protein dephosphorylation**: PPEF2's phosphatase activity dephosphorylates and regulates various proteins, including those involved in signal transduction and cell migration. **Clinical Significance:** PPEF2's involvement in various cellular processes and signaling pathways has significant implications for human health and disease. Some potential applications of PPEF2 include: 1. **Visual disorders**: PPEF2's role in visual perception suggests its potential involvement in retinal degenerative diseases, such as retinitis pigmentosa. 2. **Neurological disorders**: PPEF2's involvement in MAPK signaling pathways may contribute to the development of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 3. **Cancer**: PPEF2's phosphatase activity may regulate cell proliferation and differentiation, making it a potential target for cancer therapy. 4. **Inflammation**: PPEF2's role in regulating immune responses may contribute to the development of inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** PPEF2 is expressed in various cell types, including: 1. **Retinal rod cells** 2. **Eye photoreceptor cells** 3. **Blood vessel endothelial cells** 4. **Plasma cells** 5. **Kidney proximal convoluted tubule epithelial cells** 6. **Cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons** 7. **Forebrain radial glial cells** 8. **Absorptive cells** 9. **Goblet cells** 10. **Intestinal crypt stem cells of colon** In conclusion, PPEF2 is a multifunctional protein phosphatase with EF-hands 2 that plays a significant role in various cellular processes and signaling pathways. Its involvement in visual perception, MAPK signaling, and protein dephosphorylation makes it a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, including visual disorders, neurological disorders, and cancer. Further research is needed to elucidate the full extent of PPEF2's immunological significance and its potential applications in human health and disease.
