Identification of a new protein that interacts with the tight junction protein ZO‐2

The FASEB Journal, 2008
The purpose of this study is to identify new proteins that interact with the middle portion of ZO‐2. We found a new protein pb3PSG (protein binding to 3PSG) and we want to characterize it in epithelial MDCK cells. We performed a two‐hybrid system using the 3PSG segment of ZO‐2 as bait.

ZO‐2, a tight junction protein involved in gene expression, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell size regulation

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2017
ZO‐2 is a peripheral tight junction protein that belongs to the membrane‐associated guanylate kinase protein family. Here, we explain the modular and supramodular organization of ZO‐2 that allows it to interact with a wide variety of molecules, including cell–cell adhesion proteins, cytoskeletal components, and nuclear factors.

Organization and expression of the human zo-2 gene (tjp-2) in normal and neoplastic tissues

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Structure and Expression, 2000
One of the tight junction components, zonula occludens protein 2 (ZO-2), is expressed as two isoforms, ZO-2A and ZO-2C, in normal epithelia. In pancreatic adenocarcinoma of the ductal type ZO-2A is absent, but none of the common mechanisms of gene inactivation is responsible for lack of ZO-2A expression.

ZO‐2, a tight junction scaffold protein involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2012
ZO‐2 is a membrane‐associated guanylate kinase homologue (MAGUK) tight protein associated with the cytoplasmic surface of tight junctions. Here, we describe how ZO‐2 is a multidomain molecule that binds to a variety of cell signaling proteins, to the actin cytoskeleton, and to gap, tight, and adherens junction proteins.

[LIM protein KyoT2 interacts with human tight junction protein ZO-2-i3].

Yi chuan xue bao = Acta genetica Sinica, 2003
It was reported that LIM protein KyoT2 negatively regulated transcription by association with the RBP-J DNA-binding protein. Using yeast two-hybrid system with LIM protein KyoT2 as a bait, we have isolated an alternatively spliced form of human tight junction protein 2--ZO-2-i3.

The organophosphate pesticide methamidophos opens the blood-testis barrier and covalently binds to ZO-2 in mice

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 2018
Methamidophos (MET) is an organophosphate (OP) pesticide widely used in agriculture in developing countries. MET causes adverse effects in male reproductive function in humans and experimental animals, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown.

Tight junction protein zo-2 is differentially expressed in normal pancreatic ducts compared to human pancreatic adenocarcinoma

International Journal of Cancer, 1999
Differential display of hamster mRNA identified a fragment present in normal pancreatic duct cells that is not expressed in pancreatic duct carcinoma cells. Sequence analysis showed an 88% and 82% identity, respectively, to the cDNA of the canine and human tight junction zo-2 gene.

The tight junction protein ZO-2 associates with Jun, Fos and C/EBP transcription factors in epithelial cells

Experimental Cell Research, 2004
ZO-2 is a membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) protein present at the tight junction (TJ) of epithelial cells. While confluent monolayers have ZO-2 at their cellular borders, sparse cultures conspicuously show ZO-2 at the nuclei. To study the role of nuclear ZO-2, we tested by pull-down assays and gel shift analysis the interaction between ZO-2

A ZO ‐2 scaffolding mechanism regulates the Hippo signalling pathway

The FEBS Journal
Contact inhibition of proliferation is a critical cell density control mechanism governed by the Hippo signalling pathway. The biochemical signalling underlying cell density‐dependent cues regulating Hippo signalling and its downstream effectors, YAP, remains poorly understood.
