Description

IRAG2 (Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate Receptor Associated 2) encodes a protein that interacts with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) and modulates calcium release from intracellular stores. It is involved in platelet aggregation and vascular smooth muscle contraction.

Protein Summary

The IRAG2 protein is a transmembrane protein that localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane. It binds to IP3 receptors and modulates calcium flux, playing a critical role in platelet aggregation and vascular tone.
