Function

Junctophilins contribute to the formation of junctional membrane complexes (JMCs) which link the plasma membrane with the endoplasmic or sarcoplasmic reticulum in excitable cells. Provides a structural foundation for functional cross-talk between the cell surface and intracellular calcium release channels. JPH2 is necessary for proper intracellular Ca(2+) signaling in cardiac myocytes via its involvement in ryanodine receptor-mediated calcium ion release. Contributes to the construction of skeletal muscle triad junctions. {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023, ECO:0000269PubMed:19095005, ECO:0000269PubMed:21339484}.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}. Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}; Single-pass type IV membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}. Note=Localized predominantly on the plasma membrane. The transmembrane domain is anchored in endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, while the N-terminal part associates with the plasma membrane. In heart cells, it predominantly associates along Z lines within myocytes. In skeletal muscle, it is specifically localized at the junction of A and I bands.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Abundantly expressed in skeletal muscle and heart. Weak expression in stomach and lung. {ECO:0000269PubMed:10949023}.
