Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * Type: Protein * Ensembl ID: ENSG00000105971 * Protein length: 1,271 amino acids * Domain: Transmembrane domain * Tissue expression: Endothelial cells of the lungs, blood vessels, and other tissues * Functional domains: * Extra-nuclear estrogen signaling domain * Endoplasmic reticulum organization domain * Negative regulation of endothelial cell proliferation domain * Positive regulation of endothelial cell proliferation domain **Pathways and functions:** * Endoplasmic reticulum organization: Caveolin-2 is a key component of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it is involved in the transport of proteins and lipids. * Endothelial cell proliferation: Caveolin-2 is essential for the proliferation of endothelial cells. It is a key regulator of vascularization and tumor growth. * Esr-mediated signaling: Caveolin-2 is a downstream target of estrogen receptors. It is involved in the regulation of angiogenesis and breast development. * Extra-nuclear estrogen signaling: Caveolin-2 is also a downstream target of the extra-nuclear estrogen receptor (ER). It is involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. * Insulin receptor signaling pathway: Caveolin-2 is a downstream target of the insulin receptor. It is involved in the regulation of vascular permeability. * Mitochondrial organization: Caveolin-2 is involved in the organization and stability of mitochondria in endothelial cells. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the CAV2 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including pulmonary hypertension, heart failure, and cancer. * Caveolin-2 inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for these diseases. **Additional notes:** * Caveolin-2 is a highly conserved protein that is found in organisms from yeast to humans. * It is a member of the CAV family of proteins, which are involved in the organization and function of the endoplasmic reticulum. * Caveolin-2 is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in the regulation of endothelial cell growth, migration, and survival.
