Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for PKD2(NM_000297.3) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene encodes a member of the polycystin protein family. The encoded protein contains multiple transmembrane domains, and cytoplasmic N- and C-termini. The protein may be an integral membrane protein involved in cell-cell/matrix interactions. The encoded protein may function in renal tubular development, morphology, and function, and may modulate intracellular calcium homoeostasis and other signal transduction pathways. This protein interacts with polycystin 1 to produce cation-permeable currents. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

- review of reported mutations
- functions as a calcium-activated intracellular calcium release channel in vivo, and polycystic kidney disease results from the loss of a regulated intracellular calcium release signalling mechanism
- found profound differences in the spatiotemporal expression of PKD1 and PKD2 during nephrogenesis, PKD2 being expressed earlier and more diffusely than PKD1
- identification, characterization, and localization of a complex with polycystin 1
- role in mediating cation channel activity
- Several independent lines of evidence reveal that the carboxyl terminal domain (D682-V968) of polycystin 2 interacts with cardiac and skeletal isoforms of troponin I.
- identified and demonstrated that the intracellular C terminus of PC2 associates with a core regulatory protein of the actin cytoskeleton system, tropomyosin-1

- An at-least weak hot spot in exon 1 of the PKD2 gene was found in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients in the Czech Republic.
- In PKD2- B-lymphoblastoid cells, transfection of a PKD2 full-length cDNA causes an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels & cell proliferation. PC2 functions in a Ca2+ signaling context, which in turn modulates gene expression.
- Results show that mDia1 and PKD2 interact in native and in transfected cells, and binding is mediated by the cytoplasmic C terminus of PKD2 binding to the mDia1 N terminus.

- polycystin-2 is necessary for the proper growth and differentiation of kidney epithelial cells and suggest a possible mechanism for the cyst formation seen in ADPKD2
- PKD2 regulates the cell cycle through direct interaction with Id2; Id2 expression suppresses the induction of a cdk inhibitor, p21, by either PKD1 or PDK2. The PDK2-Id2 interaction is regulated by PDK1-dependent phosphorylation of PDK2.

- These findings suggest that FPC and polycystins share, at least in part, a common mechanotransduction pathway.
- TRPP2 has been suggested to function as a mechanosensitive channel that detects fluid flow in the renal tubule lumen, supporting the proposed role of the primary cilium as the unifying pathogenic concept for cystic kidney disease.
- overexpression of human PKD2 leads to anomalies in tubular function, probably due to abnormalities in tubule morphogenesis.
