Gene nameLIM2
Protein nameLens intrinsic membrane protein 2
Lens fiber membrane intrinsic protein (MP18) (MP19) (MP20)
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Present in the thicker 16-17 nm junctions of mammalian lens fiber cells, where it may contribute to cell junctional organization. Acts as a receptor for calmodulin. May play an important role in both lens development and cataractogenesis.
