An 86 amino acids motif in CAPN3 is essential for formation of the nucleolus-localized Def-CAPN3 complex

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2022
Digestive-organ expansion factor (Def) is a nucleolar protein that recruits cysteine proteinase Calpain3 (CAPN3) into the nucleolus to form the Def-CAPN3 complex in both human and zebrafish. This complex mediates the degradation of the tumor suppressor p53 and ribosome biogenesis factor mitotic phosphorylated protein 10 (Mpp10) in nucleolus ...

Characterization of the expression profile of calpain-3 (CAPN3) gene in chicken

Molecular Biology Reports, 2011
Calpain-3 is a skeletal muscle-specific protease and participates in the regulation of myogenesis. In this study, we quantified the expression of calpain-3 (CAPN3) mRNA in a Chinese local chicken breed (Sichuan Mountainous Black-boned chicken [MB]), to discern the tissue and ontogenic expression pattern. Meanwhile, we compared the CAPN3 mRNA expression

Quantitative analysis of CAPN3 transcripts in LGMD2A patients: Involvement of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

Neuromuscular Disorders, 2007
Limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) is caused by single or small nucleotide changes widespread along the CAPN3 gene, which encodes the muscle-specific proteolytic enzyme calpain-3. About 356 unique allelic variants of CAPN3 have been identified to date.

CAPN3 mutations in patients with idiopathic eosinophilic myositis

Annals of Neurology, 2006
AbstractObjectiveEosinophilic myositis (EM) constitutes a rare pathological entity characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of skeletal muscles, usually associated with parasite infections, systemic disorders, or the intake of drugs or L‐tryptophan. The exclusion of such causes defines the spectrum of idiopathic EM.

Mutation spectrum of CAPN3 gene in LGMD2A patients in Croatia

European journal of human genetics, 2002
Background. Our previous results have shown that the most frequent mutation in CANP3 gene in patients from Croatia is the 550delA mutation, while the Y537X mutation was found only in 1 family. We report the results of the screening of CANP3 gene on 27 families, 8 of them never investigated, in which one or both mutations have been identified. Objective.

Development of an inducible system to assess p94 (CAPN3) function in cultured muscle cells

Journal of Biotechnology, 2002
p94 belongs to the calpain family of enzymes, also called calcium-activated neutral proteases and is mainly expressed in the skeletal muscle. Mutations affecting the gene coding for p94 are responsible for a myopathy syndrome called Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A).

Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type 2A (CAPN3): Mapping Using Allelic Association

Human Heredity, 1998
Recently a graphical study of linkage disequilibrium around the CAPN3 locus failed to refine the 1.3-Mb interval suggested by haplotype sharing. On the contrary, the Malecot model as implemented in the ALLASS program maps CAPN3 within 3 kb of its true location (23 kb from the locus midpoint), overcoming identified problems with small samples ...

The Unified CAPN3 Model — Integrating Molecular, Mechanical, and Regenerative Dynamics in Calpainopathy and the Therapeutic Rationale for AAV-CAPN3 Gene Restoration

This preprint proposes a unified signaling-based pathomechanistic model of Calpainopathy (LGMDR1), integrating CAPN3’s structural, calcium-regulatory, and RTK–RAS–MAPK stabilization functions. The work presents a mechanistic explanation for exercise sensitivity, delayed recovery, impaired regeneration, and long-term satellite-cell decline.
