The Role of #Calponin in #Cell Mechano transduction by Airong Qian in BJSTR

H2-calponin, an #actin-cytoskeleton associated protein, is expressed in smooth muscle and certain non-muscle cells. Researchers have demonstrated that H2-calponin proteins are highly expressed in developing and remodeling tissues. As a mechanical tension responsive gene inside the cell, H2-calponin interacts with F-actin and certain focal adhesion proteins, modifies #cytoskeleton function, takes part in #mechanochemical signal transmission and plays an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, motility and #cytokinesis. Based on recent research progresses in this field, this paper reviewed the molecular characteristics of H2-calponin and the role of H2-calponin in mechano sensation and mechano transduction.
