Disease relevance of Spsb2

 

High impact information on Spsb2

  • SSB-2 expression was observed in the kidney and in megakaryocytes, a finding consistent with the phenotype of mice lacking this gene [1].
  • Tissue histology and other hematological parameters were normal, as was the majority of serum biochemistry, with the exception that blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were decreased in mice lacking SSB-2 [1].
  • The optimal receptor potency of ryanodine and didehydroryanodine is reduced 3-14-fold by hydroxylation at an isopropyl methyl substituent, epimerization at C9, oxidation or acetylation of the C10-hydroxyl, or epoxidation at the 9,21-position; other ryanoids are less active [2].
